Orca "Strange text" has gone, but other problems arrived

Hi,
I succeeded in removing that text spoken by the synth when
placing the 
cursor on the icon of my Windows hard drive. That very same
text was spoken 
when I open a text file with gedit and then press
numpad-plus to entirely 
read it.
I changed
~/orca-2.17.3/po/de.po
by commenting out this text, recompile and restart Orca.
Now that "strange text" has gone, but now I cannot
read the whole document 
in gedit; pressing numpad-plus reads the actual cursor line.
The same happens in OO-writer and Evolution, but this
happened before 
changing Orca.
I guess that there's something wrong with the script which
performs the 
"read whole document" function. What can I do?
Regards
Hermann

I'm hoping this is fixed in GNOME CVS HEAD, which will find
its way into
Orca v2.17.4 in a little over a week.  Can you try make line
632 in
gnomespeechfactory.py do the following (it used to have
_("") instead of
""):

            oldText = oldText.replace("n",
"", 1)

This should hopefully fix the problem.  If it doesn't we
need to know so
we can keep working on it.

I just tried this in gedit using Orca from GNOME CVS HEAD
and cannot
reproduce the problem.  Can you send the text file that
you're look at
in gedit?  In addition, which synthesis engine are you
using?

Hi Will,
the annoying string is still gone after changing the script,
thanks,
this works.
But the "read-only" function still refuses to
work.
I'll send the file via private mail, it's a German file and
a bit
longer.
Regards
Hermann

To acomplish my mail I must add that I use espeak as synth,
wiht German
language; the synth runs via speech-dispatcher.
