Hi John,

Ok, i realize this isn't exactly on-topic at least not in this thread,
which is why i changed subject, but i see Emacs mentioned here and so
i wonder what difference if any there is between using Emacs with
Speakup rather than using it with its own Emacspeak. What if anything
do i miss if using Speakup rather than Emacspeak and if Emacspeak is
the prefered method, is there any free speech synth or hardware one
that works particularly well with it and if Emacspeak and Speakup can
coexist happily?
Note: i'm not looking for docs, but rather opinions from y'all.
/K
