I actually still have an echo pc. I started out with an apple ii-c (really portable for me since I don't use a monitor!). Any idea of how much work it would be for me to add in support for the echo into speakup? I've got the manual around here somewhere that lists all the sequences.... Any pointers Kirk? I assume there are key-value pairs for each of the possible values for speakup_synth that would need the addition of an additional key word? Is the controls actually within the source code or do you use a seperate data file? If I actually get something working do you want a diff? Cecil
