[nvda] Re: virtual buffer quick navigation suggestion and localization question

Hi Peter,

Re quick key navigation:
At the Moment NVDA does not override the tab key at all, it is left up to the application where it moves. This could change I guess, but it does make things a little more complex. The other option is when moving because of a quick key, then the object moved to should get focus (as in tell firefox etc to focus on it). This seems ok at first, but it will majorly break some javascript enabled sites since you would not be able to move away from some fields with out it giving you an error because of bad validation of the field and so forth. 

I will have to think about this one.

Re translating speaking of typing:
Perhaps this can be done, but perhaps I'm going to have to make one translatable string, that is a combination of all speakable characters for that language. And then when peopel translate, they just need to remember to change it to there own list, and things should work fine.
I will also look in to this, can't add it just at the moment, but will get to it as soon as I can. 

Re encoding and character set:
As far as I understand, you set those to exactly how you wrote the file, gettext should be able to handle any format.

Subject: [nvda] virtual buffer quick navigation suggestion and localization question 



Hello,
would it be possible to make NVDA's quick navigation (such as by paragraph, by table, by form field ....) in sync with tab key navigation? Here is the example. I open a page then I hit letter T two times to find second table from the top. Then after pressing tab key NVDA anounces first link from the position where I started pressing letter T. I can see this kind of behaviour in internet explorer as well as in firefox. It's no big deal. it is just a bit unusual to me because I am used to do pressing of the tabkey. The behaviour which I want can easily be simulated by using letter K instead of tab key and shift+K instead of shift+tab combo.
BTW I now have prepared translation of all NVDA's strings into my native language. Which encoding and character set have I to set at the top of the po file? or these are just comments? Another problem is keyboard echo of national characters. they are not spoken as I type. can something be done with it while translating strings?
