But I hear if you already know how to use emacs as an editor, the emacspeak environment isn't so hard to learn... Just a thought. Take care and good luck. --le ----- Original Message ----- From: "Beth Hatch" To: "'Laura Eaves'" ; "'Speakup is a screen review system for Linux.'"

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I heard the learning curve was fairly steep, normally that's not a problem, but when you're on a deadline with not a lot of time, I thought I may stick with Speakup using a terminal in order to get the job accomplished faster. Thanks for the message!!

Subject: Re: Speakup on Other Unix Operating Systems Hi Beth -- Have you looked at emacspeak? I haven't used it but I was under the impression that it is not limited to linux. Please someone correct me if I'm wrong. Good luck. --le ----- Original Message ----- From: "Beth Hatch" To: "'Speakup is a screen review system for Linux.'" Sent: Wednesday, July 27, 2005 10:33 PM Subject: Speakup on Other Unix Operating Systems Hello all, I have a job possibility where I may need to have speech access to BSD unix? Is it possible to use Speak up with this operating system, or is there some other screen reader that will work? I have access to a Dectalk USB and a SB live sound card if software speech is support. If you prefer, please feel free to write to me off list at bhatch200@comcast.net if this is off topic for this list. If Speakup would work with it, that would much easier. I suppose I could also use ssh to get into the UNIX box from another computer. Thanks for any suggestions.
