All,
Is there any particular version of Speakup that runs better than
another, on a Debian (testing) distro, with a Dectalk Express synth?
I'd guess that the latest version is probably the best, but thought I'd
check.
Thanks,
Tink

Having said this, though, I hasten to add that by its very nature CVS might be broken at any given time because of newly checked in code, etc. I consider the CVS Speakup head and shoulders above 1.5, though, and have moved it onto all of my machines save the one where I have had trouble getting a more recent kernel to compile.

I can't say anything regarding aptitude or alsamixer as I rarely use them, but what kind of problems are you having with mutt?

* Re: speakup and mutt; [was: Re: Best version.] ` Thomas Stivers @ ` Steve Holmes 0 siblings, 0 replies; 18+ messages in thread From: Steve Holmes @ UTC (permalink / raw) To: speakup As for mutt, I usually just read the messages line by line anyway because I usually try to skip headers and previously quoted material. For full screen curses type programs like alsamixer, cfdisk and the dialog utilities used by slackware configurations and the like, cursor tracking doesn't work at all with CVS speakup. For that reason alone, we really need the ability to turn off cursor tracking for those situations. Otherwise, the cursor currently tracks beautifully in full editors like emacs. It even tracks good when scrolling text to the next screen page. On Wed, Sep 03, 2003 at 03:17:38PM -0500, Thomas Stivers wrote: > On 09/03/03 2:45 PM -0500, Kenny Hitt wrote: > > Hi.
