Hi Regarding your first question, GTK is not required unless you're using a graphical app that speaks. For example I think some of the examples use dialogues and buttons so this is why GTK is required. ON the other hand if you use the provided "Say" example, or Emacspeak, etc, you won't need GTK. To answer your second question; they are both the same. RT stands for run time, which means it is a binary meant for end users.

Subject: Re: Dectalk 5 question: The demos for dectalk required gtk+ according to what I saw on the fonix website. And when I tried the demos, which by the way didn't seem to work according to the instructions on the website, I got "can not open display" even though I thought I had the necessary packages. Is this also needed to run dectalk with all packages, even if you are working in console. also, I noticed a dectalkRT for linux. do you know if this is different from the regular dectalk package for linux and if so how? Thanks. -- Cheryl "Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at braille.uwo.ca http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup
