Description Rich Burridge 2005-10-24 21:01:05 UTC 
Create a tool to analyze scripts to extract keybindings and their
"learn mode" documentation as a means to automatically document the
input methods for Orca.

Having implemented this, perhaps add a keystroke so that a user could quickly obtain an overview of the specialized keybindings for the current app --  A sort-of "What Can I Do Here?" command?

Add accessibility keyword.  Apologies for spam.
Comment 3 Willie Walker 2007-03-27 13:16:40 UTC 
I'd like to close this bug out -- we have a couple other methods that can give the user information along these lines, though they may not be as convenient.  The first is "learn mode" and the second is the preferences/configuration GUI.  Sound fair?

Well.... Maybe.... :-) :-)  

If the to-be-developed app-specific preferences dialog is going to include a list of the keybindings AND things are arranged so that the app-specific keybindings are listed at the top of the tree so that users can quickly find them, yes I would say it sounds fair.

All are true.  Closing.
