How up to date is this informatin? Have these issues been taken up on the Speakup mailing list with the developers? I haven't used Speakup myself, but it has been around for a long time and is still an active project. Also, it was mentioned in a recent mailing list post that Ubuntu provides it by default. Perhaps the version they are using fixes the issues you're referring to. I know that Yasr with an Emacspeak speech server does work. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
