-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: RIPEMD160 Yeah, about the best one can do at the moment, is to manually save the values of interest in the /etc/speakup/<synth> directory and then the load function will work better. I got it down to a single cat error which I haven't pinned down yet. But at least I can switch between speakout and software synth and have the right speech parms. Oh a little old business; I finally had to reinstall my linux machine recently so I went back to slackware and my shell passes down the $UID environment variable now so I can use speakupconf now without having to explicitly export the UID variable first.
