Here is an interesting and unexpected fact that is close to useless for most of us, but very informative. I can use the speakup cut and paste feature to "mark" and "cut" a section of the screen display, and then "paste" that text by pressing my right mouse button. How about that? Why, you ask, am I using a mouse? Some weeks ago I configured X on my system (without any access tools (yet)) and during that process I installed GPM, the General Purpose Mouse driver, to check it for compatibility with various window managers etcetera. Frankly I forgot it was installed, and recently quite by accident while tidyhing up my desk I hit the right mouse button, which normally inserts captured text at the cursor, and lo and behold the most recent text captured by speakup was inserted. I have checked it several times and it works reliably. I assume what that means is that speakup and GPM share a capture buffer, which makes a lot of sense.
