Loading settings at startup question

Loading settings at startup question

[Christian]

Hi all,
I used speakupconf to save my settings and now I have to type 
speakupconf load each time after I have rebooted my system to get my 
default settings. How to make them loaded with speakup starting?
Many thanks,
Christian

Hi,

Depends on your speech synthetiser. You can for example set it as start
command in a bootscript on your system, or in your .bash_profile
or .bashrc of your home directory, or in /etc/profile. You can also
integrate it to the starting of the connector of your soft speech and
speakup. So bootscripts or start shell script for user or wide-system,
as you like.
Only add the line speakupconf load.


Hope it helps,

Regards,

You can always do things like this in /etc/rc.local.
On ArchLinux, I suppose I could add a startup script to the package
which contains speakupconf.  How do the other distros handle it?  Do
they do anything special?

The best way to do it is insert a line to run speakupconf in your
/etc/rc.local script.  This way, it will be run automatically every
time you boot.  I also have a line just before that selecting the
synth with talkwith.
