Hi Jacob:  Thank you for your endevours at this.  Your results are
quite interesting.  The softsynth however handles the output like all
synths do though, that is to send a synth flush character (in this
case ctrl-x) at the start of any new text being sent out.  It also
sends the flush character whenever a kp-enter or shift/control/alt are
touched.  If whatever device that is reading the softsynth device
reads the device in chunks that is as much as it wants at a time there
will be no new flush characters at the beginning of subsequent reads
because that is not newly sent data.  So if the speechd-up driver only
flushes it's buffers when it gets a flush character from the softsynth
driver the data should be handled correctly.  If it can only handle
certain buffer sizes of data then it should only read that much data
from the driver at a time.

Does this make sense?
  Kirk
