Hello there:
     Just thought I'd share my success with you guys.  I have been palying
around with emacspeak for the last month now.  I stayed with Debian distrbution
because I like the dpkg program.  At any rate, I was doing searches in the
dselect program and found an Infocom interpreter.  So I thought I would try a
good text adventure game, but I wanted speech.  So I ran it in an emacs shell
command.  It was great.  The speech was actually better than Dos, because of
the inflection Roman decided to use for the dectalk.  I love text adventure
games and I'm happy I can still run them under Linux.  By the way, if you want
an amazingly huge amount of text adventure
games/interpreters/programming/world-creators, you can find them all at:
ftp.gmd.de

It's cool.
Thanks for all of you who have pitched into making Linux accessible via
braille or speech.

regards
Martin Courcelles

P.S.  Yes I do use Linux for more than games!
