Re: Orca support and XFCE

[Laurel Ann Murphy <pianist147@netscape.net>]

I have a possible temporary solution.  I'm able to get an accessible 
panel using perlpanel in place of xfce4-panel.  The only downsides to 
perlpanel are a lack of keybindings and  the menu; it doesn't have much 
in it, at least on my system.  To run it, I just type perlpanel in the 
XFce Run dialog.   I have both "Present tooltips" and "Speak area under 
mouse" enabled in Orca Preferences.  Currently, this solution only works 
with the mouse, but Orca does speak everything on the panel.  This is 
not an ideal solution, as it would be nice to use the default panel for 
a given desktop, but it's something I'm going to keep working on, as 
it's better than nothing.

Sincerely
