Darragh, From the five minutes I spent looking at this I think
it's fairly easy for you to try to see if the existing
gnome-terminal.py script will work with the tilda
terminal application. From looking at their web page
on SourceForge, it looks like tilda uses vte, which has
most of the accessibility smarts already in it.
So...
Try adding the following lines (between the "CUT HERE"
lines) to your ~/.orca/orca-customizations.py file:
CUT HERE------ START ------ CUT HERE------
import re
import orca.settings
from orca.orca_i18n import _
orca.settings.setScriptMapping(re.compile(_('tilda')), "gnome-terminal")
CUT HERE------ END ------- CUT HERE-------
then restart Orca.
This assumes the accessible name of the tilda application
is "tilda". If it's something else, then you'll need to
adjust accordingly. Note there is already a line in Orca's
settings.py source file to map "vte" to "gnome-terminal".
Good luck!

Hello, I'm just doing some messing around. I came across a terminal that I thought I might want to play with a bit however Orca isn't scripted for it so I need a suggestion. Could anyone suggest what I need to do to get text spoken automatically? I've read the gnome-terminal.py file in /usr/local/python-2.5/site-packages/orca/scripts/ line by line and from what I gather, it's not actually defining options or tracking specific to Gnome terminal. However, it does refer to orca roles for terminals so perhaps this holds references specific to gnome-terminal. I find import statements in this file however, what file are these roles taken from? I'd like to read it to see if I can make any sense from it. With scripting of Jaws, one thing I am kind of use to is getting text out by detecting text output by measuring forground and background in console windows. Specifically, the function is called sayUnHighlightedText. Although I am not a very experienced script writer, I'd like to learn more about how Orca detects such changes with the aim of making the tilda terminal behave in a similar way to Gnome terminal.
