The lastest versions of Dasher (http://www.inference.phy.cam.ac.uk/dasher/)
also supports the AT-SPI.  You should make sure that GNOME Accessibility is
turned on (see the attached script).  If at-poke doesn't give you a list of
apps you can "poke" at, then it's not turned on (you need to restart GNOME
after running the attached script: `gnome-accessibility on`).  Then you should
have a number of different and interesting options available to you.
