Obviously not. You need to do: speakupconf load after changing something in /etc/speakup/synth_name, in order for it to take effect. > Seemed that a while ago if you changed a parameter-and-it were > out-of-range, it would mention its alowd values. It still does. If you didn't get an error, then your value must have been correct. Whether you actually see the effects of the new value is a different matter, but I just checked to be sure, and you are still told what the valid range for a parameter is if you've put in the wrong value. > I also thought there were some help system for these files? There isn't a help system for the speakup parameters as far as I know specifically, but there is the general speakup help system which you can access with speakup_key+f1. > And lastly, I was most surprised that I type man speakup and there are > no entries. Why should there be? I wasn't aware of anyone having written man pages for speakup.
