I have been using speakup as my screen reader for 9 years now. I personally think it's the best thing for console access because it is so fast. If your friend has a supported hardware synth or wants to use espeak or ibmtts you can set him/her up with speakup-connector. I prefer speakup-connector over speech-dispatcher again because of speed. When I say speed in this case I mean latency. Nothing drives me more crazy then hitting a key to shut up a synth and not have it happen instantly. > > One more thing,I heard about this 'festival voice, that it is good > synthetized voice and easy to understand, How can I use it? > Is it possible to substitute this one instead of espeak with orca screen > reader? If you install all the necessary components for festival and you are using gnome-speech you should be able to select festival from the synth choices in the orca config. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
