As you will notice, both methods can be done without feedback. The Run Dialog is easily invoked with Alt+F2, and if DISPLAY is set, invoking orca from the command-line makes it possible to review its output with some other screen reader. However, navigating the menu to invoke Orca is extremely error prone if you dont have any assistive technologies loaded yet. > I do not understand why the desktop menu item has been explicitly > disabled. To be honest, I dont fully understand it either, but OTOH, I also see no real use for having it present. If you need assistive technologies loaded, you usually need them always and therefore configure Orca to startup automatically at login. > I hypothesise that there is a class of users, probably users with some > vision, for whom Menu -> Universal Access -> Screen Reader and Magnifier > would improve the discoverability of Orca. I can certainly see how the magnifier aspect of Orca would be nice to have in the menu for some users. I just have to meet a single person once that needs Orca but doesn't have it configured to startup automatically. -- CYa, ⡍⠁⠗⠊⠕ | Debian Developer <URL:http://debian.org/> .''`. | Get my public key via finger mlang/k...@db.debian.org : :' : | 1024D/7FC1A0854909BCCDBE6C102DDFFC022A6B113E44 `. `' `- <URL:http://delysid.org/> <URL:http://www.staff.tugraz.at/mlang/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
