You have not to appologise for the software you use! :o)

I understand that circumstances differ ans each of us have to go
accordingly. You just didn't mention your circumstances before ny
advice.

But i still do not understand the value of the reader from what i have
read in the gnome-orca package description. -- As i understood it
associates events of keys pressing and app.s running some scripts to
respond to that. -- If it was correct, then why you just not use
hot-keys of your beloved window manager and some kind of demon that
watches those events from the app.s in case it signals some way? --
Another option is looking for something similar as ready solution - may
package it yourself, etc.

Currently, i, myself, moving from the remnants of «KDE» -- for now
it is only «KDM», «Konsole» and «Okular» -- the idea is to find the
most close in functionality and usability to those. -- Then it will be
no matter any more for me as what a developer of an app.s has chosen to
destroy his wonderful ever app. -- i just change it for alternative --
thus, being on functionality, and not the app. itself -- or, choosing
functionality, and not the app. itself.

And that's how things should be: standarts -- the end unser just
chooses what better in his opinion does its work.

Whereas as long as you are bound to the overhelming DEs -- you risk to
suffer fiasko one day w/ their new and wonderful decisions -- who knows
what will they do? -- And you have no option (for it is almost whole
OS to you).


PS Pardon me, women: under «his» i ment «her» too. :o)
