a few questions was Re: emacspeak and w3

["Littlefield, Tyler" <tyler@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

hello:
I don't want to highjack your thread, so I switched the subject line up 
a bit, but this has got me started anyway.
I want to learn a lot more with emacspeak than I know currently, so 
here's a few questions.
1) You mentioned getting w3 up and running. how hard was this for you? 
Any chance you'd be willing to share some of the problems you came across?
2) I have a couple issues currently. I use a lot of setq and set 
commands in my .emacs configuration file. Is there a list of variables 
that would pertain to emacspeak and help me customize things a bit more?
3) Every time I close emacspeak, I get a message that processes are 
running. Can I disable this/make it force things to close like they should?
4) Any other ideas would be welcome. Any pointers for getting started, 
info on what else I can do with emacspeak. I know people use it for mail 
and the like, but I have no idea where to even begin in terms of getting 
that going.

Also, one final question. I do not have sound, but I know emacspeak 
plays sounds. Is there an external program I need for that?
Thanks,
