Hello again,
I did not wish to suggest that I sought a comparison with speakup. Since
it will no longer be supported, then the comparison is better with the
other offerings, what one can or cannot access fully, what hardware
synthesizers are supported, etc.
I have never cared for jaws, nor been a windows user, so the reference
to jfw only makes me worried smiles.
Is there therefore then a comparison of the other screen readers you
referenced, skipping speakup altogether, so that one can make an informed
decision?

quick additional question. Is there anywhere a review of those two screen

Comparing Speakup with Orca is like comparing apples to oranges. speakup is
for the text console whereas Orca is for the Gnome desktop. And while it is
true that you can access the console through gnome-terminal, the little I've
seen of Orca suggests to me that this is equivalent to using JFW in a DOS
box...it can work quite nicely, but it's not ideal.
ORCA, LSR and Gnopernicus are all screen readers for Gnome, and there are
other console-based screen readers. Comparitive reviews of these would
probably be more helpful.
Geoff.
