Chime,
granted I am not using speakup, but it seems there is a speakup-key, think
of the voiceover, or vo key on the mac, which when combined with another
key, here 5, produces an effect tied to the screen reader in question.
My personal experience is that it mirrors the hotkey concept from what
you might recall from vocal eyes.
Speaking personally? most screen reader programs I have used over the
decades include a way to set this pronunciation option as a
configuration.
Well they do both, have a hot key for it like you illustrate, and a way
to turn on letters spoken phonetically i. e. echo tango charlie all the
time.
Having to stop and do something special, instead of say just move your
left or right arrow key over the letters in question seems kind
of...well inefficient.
That is me though,
Kare
