punctuation level in speakup

[Jared]

How do I change the punctuation level in speakup? Thanks for any help on
this.

To  get the most punctuation, do "echo 3 >/proc/speakup/punc_level".  I 
think the levels are 1="some", 2="most", 3="all".  To see what the 
levels mean, look at "/proc/speakup/punc_some", 
"/proc/speakup/punc_most", and "/proc/speakup/punc_all".

Where do I do this? At a command prompt?

You do this interactively, at a command prompt.  If you wish this to be 
automated, put the commands on one of your startup scripts, such as 
"/ect/profile".

Yup, you are basically changing some kvariables in the kernel driver.  All
such things need to be done from the shell.

Cheers.

The default setting is 1, I think the ranges are between 0 and 3, but I'm
sure someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

Anyway, if, for example, you want setting 2, you would type:

echo 2 >/proc/speakup/punc_level

Also, if you want to customise the levels, i.e. you like level 2 but
there's one thing you don't want it to say, you can do this, but you need
to re-echo the entire string to the relevan file, either punc_some,
punc_most or punc_all, because files in the /proc file system are not
regular files that you can edit with a text editor, so you may not want to
do this for now.

Cheers.

Hi, it would be 
echo  0, 1, 2, or 3 and the >/proc/speakup/punc_level

However, unless things have changed zipspeak does not use /proc file 
system.
CCan aynone tell me if /proc works in zipspeak 8?
