Re: [orca-list] hud is speaking
I have the same experience. Good to have this working with Orca. This gives me another reason to stick to precise for at least one more year. Happy hacking. Krishnakant.

I'm not sure exactly what, but I got it mostly working after installing something from the proposed PPA shortly after Precise was released. Initially, it didn't seem to be working completely for me though. For example, I'd be in a message in Thunderbird, I'd type "move", I'd arrow down to one of the options, press enter and nothing would happen except the HUD dialog would go away. I just tried it again though, and it does seem to be working.

That is basically what the HUD does, it scoops up everything in the menu of the current application and lets you type stuff and it presents the top 5 matches, if you select one it does the same as navigating to that menu option would have done.

Hi, I would like to announce, that HUD is accessible. I don't know which update caused it, but it speaks with latest orca from master, as well as with orca provided in ubuntu repositories.
