If you plan to write a manual for speakup, then make sure that you write it in the simplest non-computer/technical language possible. Remember, that your biggest audience will be those that are most likely brand new to Linux. Yep, you are going to have to write the "See Dick run!" version of the speakup manual for those people new to the world of Linux. Good luck! Stephen Dawes B.A. B.Sc.
