Dectalk software not reading console numbers

Dectalk software not reading console numbers

[Kenny Hitt]

Hi.  I'm playing with speakup CVS and the Dectalk software synth.
I just noticed the synth isn't reading the console numbers in
the output of the who command.

kenny    vc/1         Jul 16 15:44
kenny    vc/2         Jul 16 15:44
kenny    vc/3         Jul 16 15:44
kenny    vc/4         Jul 19 13:53

If I do a read word on the console number, I hear it.  Just reading
by lines I only hear "vc slash".  Does anyone else see this?
If I cursor back up to the text from the who command in this
message, I only hear the "vc slash".  Using the left and right
arrow speaks the number after the /.

Thanks in advance.
          Kenny

Hi,
Is there a Dectalk demo program for Linux you can use from the command line
or is it all GUI?  I'm one of these people who love playing with Dectalk,
making it sing and doing all sorts of other crazy and stupid stuff with it.
Have seven Dectalk Expresses in the house, if that's any indication.  I love
Dectalk!
Jayson.

Hi.  You can get software DEctalk for Linux from

http://www.fonix.com/products/dectalk/rt_linux/

It costs $50 U.S.
