Re: Emacspeak For Windows, Has A "New" Home!
Heh, it's interesting that I met the guy who put this version out there only a few weeks back.
The things stopping me from giving Emacspeak a whirl are the frequent issues I keep running into and the less than helpful responses I get to these issues on the Emacspeak list, which cannot really be called newbie-friendly.
For example, it appears these days there is a preconfigured Ubuntu package of a relatively recent version of emacspeak these days, and it works using the eSpeak synthesizer. And it works, but one of Emacspeak's, at least in my opinion, unique features, namel the reading of different types of texts in differnt voice pitches, which is especially useful for coding, doesn't work using the default synth (eSpeak) it comes with. Or ...it barely works, is a better way to phrase it. To get that functionality, you have to grab the Voxin speech synthesizer for a few bucks and then use their install script, which of course decided to not work properly fo
r me and to render emacspeak mute...
either I am cursed regarding this program, or it is just notoriously finicky
