List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hello I believe zipspeak is a modified version of zipslack from slackware. Zipslack is a version of slackware Linux with a minimul set of applications and is installed in to a Ums-dos file system, this allows you to extract the zip file and then run Linux with out having to repartition your hard drive. I am not certain exactly how zipspeak differs from zipslack in what is installed but zipspeak has been preconfigured to work with speakup. I wonder though with slackware including speakup by default is there a reason to maintain the zipspeak distribution?
