*SNIP* Speakup does have a way to let other programs talk to the synth, but the other programs will have to be written to use it. *SNIP* what you need to do is 2 things. 1. make the device /dev/synth with mknod /dev/synth -c 10 25 then rewrite the speech servers which are tcl scripts to make use of /dev/synth. that's all ther is to it. hth -- Shaun Oliver "Becareful of the toes u step on today, they maybe connected to the ass you have to kiss tomorrow!"
