Yes, and no. What's possible is combining any single key that isn't defined as a modifier with any number of keys that are defined as modifiers (shift, control, alt, etc). >I've tried the following bind but it doesn't work : > >bind ScreenReader+Dot2+Dot3+Dot4 KEY_INSERT+PASSCHAR+s The insert key isn't defined as a modifier. It could be, of course, but it isn't right now. If it were, then the correct syntax would be: bind ScreenReader+Dot2+Dot3+Dot4 PASSCHAR+s+insert >I need a lot of these type of bindings for Orca commands, but it seems that >it isn't possible? So you're trying to solve the problem of giving braille device access to more Orca commands for a single braille device? I'm assuming this because no braille device that I'm aware of has a key named ScreenReader. May I suggest a different approach that'd be more useful to everyone? What about defining more brltty commands, i.e. BRL_CMD_... - one for each useful Orca command. Then, say, bind Dots78 + various intuitive combinations of dots 1 through 6 to those new commands. Then change Orca to recognize those new commands and translate them to its own equivalents. If this were done, then, almost by magic (your effort, of course), lots of braille users would immediately gain a lot more functionality when using Orca. -- I believe the Bible to be the very Word of God: http://Mielke.cc/bible/ Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | WebHome: http://Mielke.cc/ EMail: [email protected] | Ottawa, Ontario | Twitter: @Dave_Mielke Phone: +1 613 726 0014 | Canada K2A 1H7 | _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
