In the version of speakup included in Fedora distro, how do i change things such as pitch, tone, rate, and all that other crap?
Thanks,
Nick

I believe that is done through the proc files system.
I don't remember the syntax as I have a script that automatically does
this on boot up for me so I don't touch anything.

These parameters are set in the files under the directory /proc/speakup.
To see what is there just do an ls on the directory. To see what the
various items are set to use cat. For example to see your rate do "cat
/proc/speakup/rate". To change the rate use echo for example "echo 9
>/proc/speakup/rate" sets the rate on my doubletalk to 9. If you attempt

What doesn't work? What error message, output, ETC. do you get? "It
doesn't work" doesn't tell me very much.

I get no output when I try to change the rate.  Nothing, it doesn't move.
Thanks,
Nick

So its not changing the value of /proc/speakup/rate? If so then there's
a bug somewhere, but it works fine here with both my doubletalk and the
softsynth device. Which synth are you using?

I am using Accent SA.  The only Hardware speach synthesizer I've been able
to  come by.
Thanks,
Nick.
