I couldn't swear to this...I have used a Juno with Speakup--same thing as the Apollo really--and got the same results. Anyway, I think it has to do with the way that the Apollo receives stuff to speak...I think (if I remember the docs rightly) that it has like an 8K buffer, which probably includes all he control commands. I expect that what's happening is that when the buffer fills up, it empties and speaks the next bit...regardless of whether it's split in the middle of a word or not. This is a slight annoyance, but I don't know that there's a way around it. (Maybe there is, but I don't know what it is in the constraints of a kernel-space speech driver.) Anyway, I'm sure Kirk will tell me if I've got the whole reason wrong :) -- Buddy Brannan, KB5ELV/3 | "And if the ground yawned, Phone: (814) 455-7333 | I'd step to the side and say, Email: davros at ycardz.com | "Hey ground!
