/proc/speakup

No way!  I say, "Keep /proc/speakup."  I think these /proc systems are a
real powerful thing.  Lots to learn about them but I see a lot of potential
here.

/proc/speakup was a bad idea. because:
1. if a hacker gained root, you couldn't turn off the net or something
without speech. (if
someone shut it off)
i think a keypad configuration system would be in order. use one of the
unused keys, or see if numlock is on/off, and if its one way, use rate pitch
and volume on the keypad.
check if scroll lock is on (no one uses it) and do other things.
scroll+num, +caps. things like that.
just my 2 sents. and i'm looking for someone that can give me free synths,
(i almost had one, 
but the guy got really mad and ignores me).
