There is also a very annoying bug in the Dectalk 5.0. If you use any of several compound words that start with "fire," it pronounces them weirdly with a phantom Euro symbol getting inserted, then proceeds to butcher the rest of the line. Anybody else hear this? Examples of words that trigger this are firetruck, and fireflies. On another note, does Fonix still offer the Dectalk RT for Linux? _______________________________________________ gnome-accessibility-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-accessibility-list
