Re: [orca-list] OT: Emacspeak and tcl/tclx updates



Dude, if you can fix that pitch thing with e-speak, you’ll be my official favorite person.  It broke at about Emacspeak 34 or so and hasn’t been the same ever since.  No one who has a clue on how to fix it seemed to care because they all use Voxin so, I was worried it was forever broken. 

 

Regards,

Alex M

It will work.

You just need to edit the PKGBUILD to use tcl 8.6. Either that or clone the git repository directly

git clone git://github.com/tvraman/emacspeak.git

I'll try again, but I think the AUR version said it depended on tcl8.5 as well. I can check again, though, in a while. I really hope I can get this working, as I want to fix Emacspeak's eSpeak support if possible, with the pitch changes and such, and I think proofreading Bookshare books will be far more easy will Emacspeak than anything else. And I've tried speechd-el, but as I've said before, it reminds me of narrator on Windows. Also, what's wrong with the Emacspeak-git package in AUR?

Hello,

pull emacspeak from git

install tclx from the aur., However make sure its using tcl 8.6 or it depends on it rather.

Then do make configre, make install from the emacspeak git package. Als configure your speech server. Change to the servers directory and linux-espeak directory make, make install.

Your emacs should be working if you have the dtk variable exported.

Of course if you want emacs to start emacspeak all the time

~/.emacs

(load-file "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/emacspeak/lisp/emacspeak-setup.el")

I'm sure you already know the settings for .emacs. However I just installed the version of emacspeak from git and all seems to be working.

I cannot remove tcl, since brltty and other things depend on it. TK depends on it, and plenty packages depend on that.

Please remove tcl since you have most other dependencies removed.  That should set you up with a clean slate.
Next please install emacspeak-git and allow it to install what it wants for dependencies.  Sometimes things break and it's necessary to arrange for a clean slate then install the end package you most want to use and allow that package to select what it wants in terms of its own dependencies.

Hi all. I'm trying to get Emacspeak working, as I find it easier to edit and write with Emacs than Libreoffice and Gedit, especially where formatting is concerned. I'm running an up-to-date Sonar Gnu-Linux, with TCL8.6. When I try to install Emacs, it says it needs TCL8.5, and trying to install tclx gives the same error. Is there anything I can do? I had TCL8.5 before, but Emacspeak ran sluggishly with that version, so I uninstalled emacspeak, then tclx, then updated TCL, and that's when I started being unable to install tclx and emacspeak again. I would use speechd-el, if it were more advanced. For now, it reminds me more of narrator, and isn't being actively developed that I can tell.
