Re: Emacspeak with the Accent SA

Lui -

The error message you report, "Process speaker not running", could be
due to many things.  Attached is a script "testit" which checks your
setup.  Please check that "strace" is installed on your system, then
execute the script and mail me the file log.tcl which it should
create.
