speechd-up splitting text strings

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Oh and another issue, not sure if its related or not...
if output is one character, it doesn't get spoken.

type echo hi
speech is
hi
prompt

type echo h

speech is
prompt


inserting whitespace before the single character or after it doesn't
make a difference. one speakable character = no speach. again only
with auto speaking new text, numpad 7 to go up reads it just fine.
