I have never used Speechd-el. I've used Emacspeak for a few years now and find it quite handy as an editor.
It has a lot more functionality than that but it's a first class editor. I wrote a tutorial on it four years
ago. It's mostly still accurate. It's certainly enough to get you off the ground. I keep meaning to update
it but never seem to get around to it. Here is the link for you if you want to read it:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8941527/emacspeak-easy-howto.html
To my humbling surprise, I discovered a short time ago that a copy of this is also included with Emacspeak
itself. I recommend reading it with Orca though and not Emacspeak since you really need to concentrate on
understanding it without trying to navigate a document into the bargain on your first try.
Be well,
Alex M

Hello,
I think emacs is really powerfull editor.
Can some of you knowing it better either give a few words on why you prefer speechd-el over emacspeak or the
other way round?
It appears emacspeak is more active developed than speechd-el.
Also is there a howto for beginers and noobs looking at learning this?
Greetings
Peter

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emacspeak check out emacspeak it is
supposed to be very good and also allows for access to other things.
There are also speechd-el. You can find information here :
http://devel.freebsoft.org/speechd-el
I use this line in my bashrc to make Emacs in CLI automatically :
alias emacs='emacs -nw'
Best regards,
Alex.
