Hello,Here is how I understand the situation after studying Emacs a bit. I just started, so perhaps I don't know something obvious for everyone. I am using Emacs 24.5.1 under Windows. On my system, the encoding used is cp1250. But if I understand properly, the Emacs language environment for slovakia, "slovak language environment" uses latin-2. I don't understand how is this related and why Emacs for Windows doesn't use Windows locale. If I type a national character on my keyboard, I hear "latin small letter c with caron", or only "c with caron", if I for example arrow over the line containing the character. However I would expect Emacspeak to speak the character itself, not its description. My synth is able to handle it, but it needs the character to be encoded in cp1250. If I kill the line, it is copied to clipboard and text is correct, this is probably because Emacs knows about encoding and encodes the copied text correctly. Also what I don't understand is how the keyboard input is handled under Windows. I suspect it is translated to latin-2. Before I described this, I removed all related customizations. What I tried before was for example
(prefer-coding-system 'cp1250) (set-keyboard-coding-system 'cp1250)etc. And combinations like suffixes -dos and -unix. Nothing helped me however.

Hi Lubos I am using Emacspeak with the outloud speech-server and I use its German voice to read German text. German words with non-ascii characters like "Löhrer" are pronounced correctly. So what you are trying to achieve should be possible. Have you tried setting dtk-unicode-process-utf8 to nil? This should disable all processing by the dtk-unicode module. Ultimately, this may not be what you want, but it can serve as a first step to test where your problems originate. The correct char-set names for latin-2 are latin-iso8559-2 or iso-8859-2. I think the former contains only the non-ascii part of latin-2, but I am not sure about this. About dtk-unicode-untouched-charsets, this mechanism is a bit of a hack. It is used to generate a regex to quickly find the characters that probably need replacing. Please post some text, where emacspeak replaces your non-ascii characters where it should not. I will try to find a suitable value for dtk-unicode-untouched-charsets. Best regards, Lukas Lubos Pintes writes ("Re: Emacspeak and unicode"):Hello, Sorry but I still don't understand how all this works. The doc says: Variable: User Option dtk-unicode-untouched-charsets *Characters of these charsets are completely ignored by dtk-unicode-replace-chars. So I tried to add cp1250, cp852, but nothing happened. But for some like iso-latin-2, when I applied the change, Emacspeak reported "wrong type argument charsetp xxx". I red whole chapter about internationalization. I understand that Emacs has its own internal encoding, which is a superset of Unicode. And it understands various other encoding for input and output. But how is this related with dtk-unicode? And if Emacs has its own internal encoding, when and how are charsets used, except for example when a file is loaded? Perhaps this has something to do with server process and what Emacspeak does before it sends the text to process... To state it in four words, "I am totally confused." :) Dňa 20. 8. 2015 o 17:31 raman napísal(a):The following message is a courtesy copy of an article that has been posted to gmane.emacs.emacspeak.general as well. Neither -- ie Emacspeak is not "American centric " by design, but its default settings are definitely set up for English as the default. For how Unicode is handled, see module dtk-unicode.el -- start first by reading its documentation at http://tvraman.github.io/emacspeak/manual/dtk_002dunicode.html#dtk_002dunicode At a high-level you want to customize option dtk-unicode-untouched-charsets to include character sets that your TTS engine handles on its own -- so for instance, if you have a Japanese TTS engine, you add the relevant character sets that you use routinely to that customization option.----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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".
