The default setting is 1, I think the ranges are between 0 and 3, but I'm sure someone can correct me if I'm wrong. Anyway, if, for example, you want setting 2, you would type: echo 2 >/proc/speakup/punc_level Also, if you want to customise the levels, i.e. you like level 2 but there's one thing you don't want it to say, you can do this, but you need to re-echo the entire string to the relevan file, either punc_some, punc_most or punc_all, because files in the /proc file system are not regular files that you can edit with a text editor, so you may not want to do this for now.
