Re: [orca-list] voxin with orca

[Rob Hill <robhill es co nz>]

Hello Andrea and list,

This isn't really an answer to your question, but telling you of my
experience might help.  

On the Oralux web site, at 

http://soft.oralux.net/emacspeak/Lucid/emacspeak_voxin_install.32_0.tgz

is a script which installs emacspeak and voxin on a lucid system.  I
found it worked very well.  I used it because I use emacspeak as my
main workhorse, but the script also installed voxin for orca to use.
The speech system, in the orca speech preferences, was set to
emacspeak speech services, rather than speech-dispatcher.  

My other observation is that I have found the people at oralux very
responsive and helpful, if you send them a message.

Good luck,

Rob
