* Starting software speech automatically in debian

  To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux.

I recently updated the debian init script I wrote to start software speech 
at boot if a hardware synth is not configured. ie. It supposedly checks if 
speakup is speaking through a hardware synth and if not, starts software 
speech.

See:
http://www.math.wisc.edu/~jheim/stuff/softsynth.html

Instead of requiring 2 scripts, it's just one. And now to switch from your 
hardware synth to software speech, you can say:

# /etc/init.d/speechd-up restart

Well, at least it works on my system.
