Re: [orca-list] orca+voxin says backquote pf zero

[John G Heim <jheim math wisc edu>]

I have 2 different ubuntu 16.04 machines tht are nearly identical. On 
one, IBM TTS voxin, whatever you want to call it, works fine. I can't 
get it to say "back quote p f". On the other, I can't make it stop. I am 
fairly sure it has something to do with my orca configuration.
