I stumbled across the speakup mailing list by following a link from
slashdot- which is a pretty cool web site, though I don't know if it's
friendly in the auditory or brail sense.. I'm not a blind person and
don't know any, just wanted to offer my assistance if anyone in the
Dallas/Fort Worth Texas area needs lend of a set of eyeballs for trouble
shooting computer junk. I have no experience whatsoever with any of the
products that may be in use by blind people, but am intrigued by the
voice interface concept. Anyway, keep up the good work and GO LINUX. I
hope the Gnome team is giving some thought to voice synthesis
modules/plugins for the new Linux interface being developed.
Best Regards,
Dave Surina

Hey, Dave!
Very nice of you. ANd thanks a lot for your offer. The only app I know that
will work with GTK tools is Gspeech, which is under heavy development and
probably a prealpha release, 'cos it never saw the world officially. It can
be found in the CVS of GNOME.
Regards,
Vic

Dave,
I don't live in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area, but I just wanted to let you know
that we all appreciate your willingness to pitch in when we need help.
Sometimes we get frustrated when we can not tell what is going on. Tings
don't work perfectly all the time, and sometimes speech is not accessible
for short periods of time. I just had the experience of installing Windows
NT workstation at work, and there is no way whatsoever to have a talking
install. I know how to answer the prompts, I just need to know what they
are. I have not converted to Linux yet, but I am planning on it in the very
near future. Thanks again for the message.
RK

Speaking of that windows NT work station install. I think now that there's
someone other than myself wanting to install it with out speech think it's
time to get the instructor that's working with me on that to start on the
work station autoinstallation. We have server finished though so work
station shouldn't be too hard.
I'll post the config files somewhere for anyone who wants them to get
htem.
Thanks.
Tommy.
