Yes, I did mess with that some and that worked. However, in the speechd-el example, I then couldn't control punctuation levels from within speechd-el. I think the situation with speechd-el is all punctuations are sent through and the punc level is set by changing the punct level in speech-dispatcher. Apparently, even if speech-dispatcher's punct level is set to none and --punct is used, espeak still speaks the characters. So I find myself with a "all or nothing" situation:). I wonder if EmacSpeak handles this better than speechd-el. -- HolmesGrown Solutions The best solutions for the best price! http://holmesgrown.ld.net/
