Hi List,
I just started using Orca with Linux last
week. I am using the Vinux distribution and while the associated mailing
list is helpful, I was advised that since I have dived in with both feet, that I
might do well to join the Orca mailing list. Apparently a number of the
Vinux developers are not Blind and the chief developer says he has only a
cursory knowledge of Orca.
So my first question is: can I get some extensive
documentation on the Orca screen reader? I know the basics by now, but I
really would like to get some advanced configuration and keystroke
information.
My second question is about adding voices. I
am from the US and with the E-Speak voices being primarily British accented and
not as clear as I am used to, I am wondering if there are any more available
voices or even synthesizers/engines that have voices in US English or even
British voices with more clarity. I am a long time Windows user and I am
comfortable with the Eloquence British voices. Even something of that
nature would be preferable (although the more you listen to E-speak British, the
more you get used to it's idiosyncrasies <g>.)
Any help would be appreciated.
