    <title>Commands for Controlling <app>Orca</app></title>
    <p>
      The following commands can be used to get into <app>Orca</app>'s
      Preferences dialogs, toggle <app>Orca</app> on and off, and bypass
      <app>Orca</app> commands to avoid shortcut conflicts within the
      application being accessed.
    </p>
    <list>
      <item>
        <p>
          Toggle <app>Orca</app> on and off in GNOME:
          <keyseq><key>Super</key><key>Alt</key><key>S</key></keyseq>.
        </p>
        <note style="tip">
           <p>
             If you are using <app>Orca</app> in another desktop environment in which
             there is no command to toggle <app>Orca</app> on and off, you may find the
             command to quit <app>Orca</app> helpful. This command is unbound by default.
             Please see <link xref="howto_key_bindings">Modifying Keybindings</link> for
             information on how to bind unbound commands.

      In Learn Mode, <app>Orca</app> will announce each keystroke you pressed
      along with any associated <app>Orca</app> command that keystroke is bound
      to. In this mode, you can also get a list of shortcuts containing all the
      <app>Orca</app> commands you can use.
