I don't have an external speech synthesizer, so I have nothing to compare to ... this is my first experience with speakup. To be honest I have no idea if it is behaving and operating properly yet. It's definitely speaking console output, but I have seen some flaky things happening. I will try the speakup 1.5 with the mods for software synth, and start testing each of the speakup functions to see if they appear to work. Come to think of it, I did have trouble getting it to stop speaking ... anyone else using the software synth? What's your experience been like? Is it not doing the same as an external synth? -- Doug
