We were thinking of having a small program that would be executed by its corresponding command, which would then parse the terminal history (.bash_history?) file in order to organize the text before sending it off to Orca.<br>

</div>You mean a program running in the terminal or an extension of the<br>
terminal application? The first is handled by a script in Orca (Joanie<br>
knows how that works, but I guess it's more or less a dup of<br>
gnome-terminal), for the latter you probably need to create your own<br>
event through at-spi I think.<br>
