Re: [orca-list] punctuation pronunciation and pauses

[Willie Walker <William Walker Sun COM>]

Hi Hermann:

I replaced my files with your files, with the only change being that I 
commented out these lines (I'm on Solaris and have not yet started 
working on resolving why I cannot get Speech Dispatcher to compile or 
work there):

#orca.settings.speechServerFactory = 'orca.speechdispatcherfactory'
#orca.settings.speechServerInfo = ['Standardsynthesizer:', 'default']
#orca.settings.voices = {
#'default' : orca.acss.ACSS({'average-pitch': 5.2000000000000002,
# 'family': {'locale': 'de', 'name': 'default Standardstimme'},
# 'rate': 60.0}),
#'uppercase' : orca.acss.ACSS({'average-pitch': 7.0}),
#'hyperlink' : orca.acss.ACSS({'average-pitch': 2.7999999999999998}),
#}

I then conducted this test:

1) Brought up gedit and typed one line:

"""@@@

2) Pressed the left and right arrow keys to navigate across the 
characters in the line above.

I heard the pronunciations you provided.  :-(  I'm not sure what could 
be going wrong.  I'm not sure how this could be a localization thing, 
but it might be.  Before running down that path (I don't have a UTF-8 
German locale on my box), can you verify that the above test fails for you?

Thanks!

Will
