Orca runs from a gui and I personally try and use speakup or brltty when compiling things as speakup and brltty are much better with handling compiler output. > software to compile Rockbox, possibly using a semi-automated process by > means of a script rather than entering commands manually.

If so, count me in as being interested. Hmm, that's an interesting thought... I personally think sticking to the current method: mkdir build && cd build && ../tools/configure then a 'make' or make -j... A blind person is more than capable of reading a few lines of output, and I'm sure running a configure script and a make isn't to difficult... (I'm blind myself and use debian (a standard installation), with brltty). But of course the script would be a boness because you can always choose to use the standard commands. Dan.
