It works and I could get speakup to say punctuation marks correctly by changing the /proc/speakup/characters values. Is there a way to change the phonettic alfabet and the word "blank" without changing it permantly in the source code and recompiling? Also is there a place where one can change speakup's own messages to another language without recompiling and changing source? Things like :"Press space to leave help, cursor up or down to scroll, or a letter to go to commands in list", ideally needs to be translated into whatever language one is trying to implement.
