I can verify this. If you listen to the sampler, you hear that volume is a decreasing function of richness, with richness 0 corresponding to 0 volume. > Also, sometimes lines I move point to do not speak immediately.

Well, I'm not having too much trouble with character echo, but I sometimes notice a bit of a stutter when word echo is enabled. For instance, the last sentence contained the word "notice'. When I pressed space to end the word, ESpeak said nuh notice ... just as a stutterer might! -- Chris ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the emacspeak list or change your address on the emacspeak list send mail to "emacspeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxx" with a subject of "unsubscribe" or "help"
