DESCRIPTION
Orca-c provides a command-line interface to interact with the Orca screen reader.
It enables users to control Orca's settings, read text, and perform other assistive tasks non-interactively.
This can be particularly useful in scripts or automated environments where a graphical user interface is not available or desired.
The command allows querying various information about accessible elements within the currently focused application, and it facilitates automated testing and remote control of Orca.
Orca-c serves as bridge between scripts, and the Orca screen reader making it possible to integrate screen-reading functionality into a wide range of automated workflows.
CAVEATS
The functionality and availability of orca-c might vary depending on the specific version of Orca and the underlying accessibility framework being used.
HISTORY
orca-c was developed as part of the Orca screen reader project to provide a command-line interface for accessibility purposes.
It allows automated scripts and programs to interact with Orca, enabling features like text-to-speech and screen reading without a GUI.
