Hi all,

I'm trying to use PyORBit to duplicate some of the functionality of
AT-poke (the GNOME accessibility query tool).  I haven't found any
documentation on how to use CORBA, much less CORBA with Python.  So far
I've used orbit-idl-2 to process the Accessibility.idl file included
with AT-SPI, and created what I believe is an imodule (a .so file that I
can place in ORBIT_TYPELIB_PATH).  I can then use
ORBit.load_typelib('Accessibility') to load it.

Then, from reading the IDLs, it looks like I want to get an
Accessible_Desktop instance, and then call methods on that such as
getChildCount().  How do I get one of those?  The example at
   http://www.daa.com.au/~james/talks/guadec2003/pyorbit/slide13.html
uses activation-client to find the IOR for a running Nautilus instance,
but I can't figure out how to use that to get me an IOR for an
Accessible_Desktop.  Am I on the right path?

Thanks,
Tessa Lau
