But one issue remains: When doing so, and start Espeakup with the -V option using "de" for German, not all punctuation characters were echoed when typing. In fact almost non are spoken. For English this works fine. And one final thing: When I reboot my machine the direct file has changed its value from 1 to 0; is this normal? Do I have to create a startup script containing the change of this value together with Espeak's start options? Hermann
