Hello, It would be great to have in the future a Orca-like for embedded environment such as mobile. Today, in principle using a Speakup enabled kernel + Speechd-Up + SpeechDispatcher + eSpeak or in user space, Yasr + emacspeak server + eSpeak, a text based dialog might be correctly spoken. In the Oralux menu, pppconfig for example is spoken through Yasr. For better rendering, dialog had been rewritten.
