Hi Janina. Upon looking at yasr docs, I probably will just stick to the lilo aproach for now, because this is a true test, and then there won't be any i/o from the serial port. I'll try it sometime and tell you what happens. ----- Original Message ----- From: Igor Gueths <igueths@xxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Tuesday, May 07, 2002 5:17 PM Subject: Re: emacspeak Hi Janina. Are eflite and yasr packages which will echo commands to the serial port? I'll have to see if I find them somewhere. Or, I could pass speakup_synth=none reboot and see if emacspeak will work. ----- Original Message ----- From: Janina Sajka <janina@xxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Tuesday, May 07, 2002 4:47 PM Subject: Re: emacspeak > Hi, Igor: > > If you're getting errors in tcl, then you should expect emacspeak > will break, as indeed you've discovered. > > By all means, try ViaVoice, and also try the second synth > approach.

Well what happens is that first, I hit pint screen to so-called kill Speakup. Next, I type emacspeak. When I get Speakup up again to see why I got a \a (bell character), I see that at the bottom it says process speaker not running. I believe that this has to do with the i/o errors I was getting while trying to test the speech server with tcl. Also, I might be getting another dectalk express sometime in the future. If I plug that into my other serial port /dev/ttyS1, and re-export the dtk_port variable, could this possibly fix the problem? Or possibly using viavoice instead?
