Grr... sorry for the incomplete message. My touchpad is too sensitive. Here's an example of the punctuation problem. If a sentence has a semicolon, it's nice to hear a pause. Espeak inserts a natural pause automatically, if punctuation level is stet to "none". I prefer to listen to text with speakup reading punctuation set to maximum, while espeak's punctuation is set to none. On the other hand, when moving the cursor up and down lines, I prefer to hear the punctuation. Unfortunately, ospeakup has already set espeak's punctuation level to none, so I don't get to hear any punctuation, regardless of speakup settings, unless I am moving the cursor one character at a time. What I want to happen when using ospeakup is for SpeakKey+F9/F10 and SpeakKey+F11/F12 to change espeak's punctuation level, rather than speakup's levels. Can this be done without editing speakup's source code?
