thanks to a great amount of help from this list , my "let the computer speak for the speech-impaired" [AKA "VBC"] is making good progress. in fact, my "Options" pop-up from the menubar is almost ready for integration. but i still want it to look like the program 'gespeaker'---meaning that i want to set, say, "Pitch" to 17, "Speed" to 100", "Speed" in words/minute to a nice, slow 190. and the "Delay" in 10ths of a second between words to 2 or 3.
i have experimented with people who suffer from a hearing loss and some whose native language is not English, &c. so: better to default to a slower rate. i want to know how to have gtk draw that orange line from 0 to my default starting point. gespeaker presents a good example. i haven't found the magic google term[s] to find what gtk command i need. can any of you help? thanks in advance, gary -- Gary Kline kl...@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix Voice By Computer (for Universal Access): http:/www.thought.org/vbc The 8.57a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org Twenty-five years of service to the Unix community. _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
