This really confused me a couple of times.  One time I ran a test from my 
home directory and then wondered why Orca wasn't speaking anymore. 
Eventually I figured out that the test dropped its own settings file, and, 
since I ran it from my home directory, Orca would now use it rather than 
the files in .orca.

So beware when running the tests.
