That's a problem: it seems that Orca take too much precedence: if I run 
Orca after xbrlapi, all Braille keys are ignored, maybe Orca just 
unignore these keys and do nothing with them ? I don't know, but it 
doesn't work; that's why I run it after (commenting all xbrlapi output 
to the braille line). :)

	What should be done to correct this ?
