Orca orca and emacs 22.0

Hi.  I have orca 17.92 and gnome 2.16 gentoo distribution
and I would
like to be able to use emacs with orca, however when I run
emacs no
orca controls work and alt-tab does not work till I get out
of emacs.
I think emacs is working because I can type in to the
*scratch buffer,
but nothing else happens.  I am using the latest cvs version
and
compiled with --with-gtk and when I go into emacs, it says
that the
accessibility module was initialized, but not much happens.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Try to start emacs in a gnome-terminal.

Hi,

Sory for that.
I was a bit too fast.
Emacs does not work for me too under gnome-terminal.
I don't know why.
This is the first software I found that is not able to work
with orca under
gnome-terminal.

You can use speechd-el extension for Emacs. I use Emacs 22
and
speechd-el under X with speech and braille support and in
the some time
runs orca which make accessible other gnome applications.
speechd-el you
can find on http://www.freebsoft.org.

Best regards

This is because the graphical emacs is not a gtk2
application.  Type "export
DISPLAY="  before you run emacs.  This should unset the
display and allow
you to use the text based emacs.  
Hope this helps

But I compiled with the --with-gtk option -- does not this
make emacs
a gtk app?

I'm pretty sure the released version of emacs uses the first
generation of
gtk which was not accessible.
