Your correct. The answer is in the speakup archive. Basically, the best solution seems to be to save the settings to a directory under /etc. My directory is called speakup and I have directories below that for each synth I use. These contain the settings I may wish to change on the fly. Do a search for /etc/speakup in the archive to find the mail on this. On Mon, 22 Apr 2002, Igor Gueths wrote: > Hi all.
