In-Reply-To: References: <3.0.6.32.20001021133359.007cb2a0@mail.ufw2.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" To: speakup@braille.uwo.ca From: Brent Harding List-Id: I don't know, but if I ever work there, I'm likely to need speakup on something, as windows telnet stinks at editing files. I wonder if they put dectalk express speakup on their systems, would I be able to plug in the dectalk any time I wanted and just use it, whether or not the dectalk was present at the last reboot? This might be fairly important, as I don't necessarily want the extremely late night shift when everyohne else is in bed (nobody's there 24/7 that I know of anyways).
