That's great news! I had been told that swing worked better in Gnome because of something to do with at-spi. I remember being rather disappointed at the time since I had looked forward to being able to use Eclipse with Orca. I even downloaded it and set it up on my Vinux 3.0 machine running Orca 2.3? (running 2.91.3 now, sorry) but ran into trouble. It kept crashing on me. When I inquired of a friend, this is what he told me and I wound up looking into Emacspeak for this task. I hope you don't mind, but, I took the liberty of Googling you. I will take what you say over my obviously uninformed friend any day of the week and twice on Sunday. Allow me, please to take a moment to thank you personally for all that you do with regard to Orca. Also, I would like to apologize to the list and take back my uninformed post. I promise to be less gullable in future about such things.
Thanks.
