According to this The Speakup User's Guide For Speakup 2.0 and Later By Gene Collins Now you can begin using your software synthesizer. In order to do so, echo the sftsyn keyword to the synth_name proc entry like this: echo sftsyn >/proc/speakup/synth_name Next run the speechd_up command like this: speechd_up & Your synth should now start talking, and you should be able to adjust the pitch, rate, etc. In this section, we have assumed that your copy of Speakup was compiled with the speakup_sftsyn component either built into the kernel, or compiled as a module. -----Original Message----- From: speakup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:speakup-bounces at braille.uwo.ca] On Behalf Of Gregory Nowak Sent: Wednesday, March 30, 2005 6:35 PM To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux.
