Hello all,
I have a job possibility where I may need to have speech access to BSD unix?
Is it possible to use Speak up with this operating system, or is there some
other screen reader that will work? I have access to a Dectalk USB and a SB
live sound card if software speech is support. If you prefer, please feel
free to write to me off list at bhatch200@comcast.net if this is off topic
for this list. If Speakup would work with it, that would much
easier.<smile> I suppose I could also use ssh to get into the UNIX box from
another computer. Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi.
Since speakup is a patch to the Linux kernel, it will only work on Linux
systems.
Your choices for screen readers are yasr or brltty. I haven't ever managed to get yasr's
DECtalk driver to work, so you will probably end up using flite for the
synth with yasr.
Your other option would be to do everything on an ssh session from a
Linux box. Then, you can use speakup on the Linux system.
Hope this helps.

Hello Kenny,
Glad to hear from you, and I hope you're doing well!!
Thanks for the quick response. I think I will probably use Linux and ssh in
the beginning at least. Since I already know how to do this, it will mean
less work. I know we discussed yasr before, but I haven't been able to look
into that. I feel much better about just sticking with speakup and using
ssh for this.<smile>
Thanks again for your assistance,
Beth

Hi Beth --
Have you looked at emacspeak?
I haven't used it but I was under the impression that it is not limited to
linux.
Please someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Good luck.

Hi Laura,
No, I haven't tried this program at all, but of course I've heard of
Emacspeak. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I heard the learning
curve was fairly steep, normally that's not a problem, but when you're on a
deadline with not a lot of time, I thought I may stick with Speakup using a
terminal in order to get the job accomplished faster.<smile>

Hi all,
Hmmmmm, only problem with Emacspeak is that although it is a wonderful
editor, has several wonderful extensions for email and the web, it
only works for emacs and its extensions. There is a terminal mode,
but I've never been able to get it to work.

Hi, yasr will work just fine under this operating system. You can use
it with eflite or any other emacs server.
So once you get the dectalk express server installed and working for
emacspeak then yasr can use it.

Hi, no it uses emacspeak servers to talk to unsupported devices.
Speech dispatcher also does this.

No I am pretty sure it doesn't. But I think what is being said is
that if Festival is installed then you are set to use Yasr.

Hello Beth,
Speakup runs at the kernel level not at the user level. This means that
it is only going to be available under Linux. If you need access under
Free BSD, you may try one of the other solutions like yasr or
emacsspeak.

Hi Beth --
Well the reason I never used it was because I am a vi user and so am not
quite used to emacs commands, which are a little different. But I hear if
you already know how to use emacs as an editor, the emacspeak environment
isn't so hard to learn...
Just a thought.
Take care and good luck.

live sound card if software speech is support. If you prefer, please feel
free to write to me off list at bhatch200@comcast.net if this is off topic
for this list. If Speakup would work with it, that would much
easier.<smile> I suppose I could also use ssh to get into the UNIX box from
another computer. Thanks for any suggestions.

Now now, you know its an "audio desktop" not just an editor. You better
be careful or you'll get yourself bitten by Mr. Raman's guide dog.

Hi, the terminal mode works well or it seemed to the few times I used
it.
Yasr works better though for normal day to day task. The key
arrangements are some what like vocal-eyes or flipper. Once you have
your emacs server working yasr can use that server to provide speech.
