Re: Anybody still use YASR

I've tried emacs with a graphical end. If you have emacspeak to load in your ~/.emacs it will load in the x environment and will speak to you.

I'm not an emacs user... But I thought I'd share my findings.

In my ~/.emacs I have the following

(load-file "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/emacspeak/lisp/emacspeak-setup.el")

Once then if I open emacs in x it starts speaking.

I also have the DTK_PROGRAM=espeak

in ~/.bashrc

emacspeak will work with emacs or emacs-nox. I prefer to use emacs-nox on a system unless I'm going to try to go graphical and my graphical attempts have been singularly unsuccessful to date.

Don't quote me on this, but I think once eflite and yasr are talking
together it would work with emacspeak if emacspeak were on the distro but would also run the console without emacspeak. I almost got eflite working
on talkingarch but the voice it was looking to use wasn't available.


Thanks Jude,

the problem is that emacspeak pulls in ways too much for a minimal
live distro, except we stick to emacs-nox, which might be easy to
include and just enough for the task. Would it make sense to try to
include emacs-nox, emacspeak, and eflite in Devuan minimal live then?
If yes, I will put it in the todo list :)
