Re: [orca-list] yasr

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

Again, see my other post(s),festival for instance, and emacspeak at the very least shold still be viable 
options, but festival usually throws me for a 
loop, so I'm not going to try and get that one figured.
If you read this Luke, you posted a very simple instruction for using festival with orca, but I can't find 
the email, and I must be leaving 
something out as I don't see festival in synth list like I did when I followed your instructions. 
I know I must start festival before orca, or restart orca after starting the festival server, but beyond 
that?
