Howdy Chrys,

I confirm that this works here.

Maybe you could make the --help output a little more non-technical friendly?

didier[~]$ fenrir --help
usage: fenrir [-h] [-s SETTING-FILE] [-o SECTION#SETTING=VALUE;..] [-d] [-p]
              [-e] [-E]

Fenrir Help

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -s SETTING-FILE, --setting SETTING-FILE
                        Use a specified settingsfile
  -o SECTION#SETTING=VALUE;.., --options SECTION#SETTING=VALUE;..
                        Overwrite options in given settings file. Sections,
                        settings and Values are cases sensitive
  -d, --debug           Turns on Debugmode
  -p, --print           Print debug messages on screen
  -e, --emulated-pty    Use PTY emulation and escape sequences for input
  -E, --emulated-evdev  Use PTY emulation and evdev for input (single
                        instance)
I guess not everyone knows what means PTY emulation.

For instance, maybe something like:
  -e, --emulated-pty    Use PTY emulation and escape sequences for input
                        Allows to use fenrir on the desktop, in a terminal
                        for X

Cheers,

Didier

Howdy,

some additional info. To start fenrir in an terminal emulator you need to run fenrir with -e parameter
fenrir -e
this will start fenrirs emulation mode. terminal emulator shortcuts are limited to the input seqences so theĀ  keyboard binding layout is different. this will change if i completed the ATK input driver for fenrir (anytime in my live lol).

to have it read the TTY like Didier already told, root is still needed.
sudo fenrir
a startup sound appears if all is configured well.

how did you installed fenrir?

Howdy,

is of no use in mate-terminal.
To correct this. It _can_ run on terminal emulators like mate-terminal using pty emulation. For the other parts of the desktop orca is needed.

Hi Michael,

Fenrir is a console (or tty) screen reader, not intended for a graphical environment.

So it can't replace Orca and is of no use in mate-terminal.

Rather, you can compare it with espeakup or speechd-up.
As such it works well, as far as I can tell (I don't really need it being sighted, so I don't use all its screen review functions).

Best,

Didier

The best I can do is to run it from the mate terminal and the best I have achieved is to hear tones and to be told something like agent is missing I think but the speed of the speech is verry fast but that is the error message I seemed to have made out.

I am running Ubuntu 19.04.
