SAPI in Ubuntu

2009-07-14 Thread Thomas Lloyd
Please check out my Project here:

http://code.google.com/p/open-sapi/

Give me an idea of what your trying to do and i can give you some help.
SAPI 5 is working but it is stable enough yet for use as an alternative
to the current speech engines in Linux whne used with a screen reader.

Ämne: Some Karmic milestone question


Dear List!

Luke, I look Karmic milestones, and see some interesting milestones: 1.
Replacing Pidgin with Empathy in Karmic Alpha3. What your openion?
Possible accessible this application with final 
release? Now impossible using contacts table with Orca. Possible install
Pidgin if the user want this application, or drop 
entire this application?

2. In the beta milestones I see you want replace gnome-speech with 
speech-dispatcher with Karmic Beta. I known, this is long process, but 
in future this is good thing. I have some question:
The user possible use with final release the old gnome-speech method if 
want? Need install required gnome-speech packages with universe 
repository, or installed with live cd? I ask this, because now when 
using speech-dispatcher, impossible setting punctuation with orca 
settings dialog, only now need manual edit the speec-dispatcher config 
files. See this bug: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=440114

Another problem (I think only this is hungarian specific problem but not

sure), need do the important punctuation characters (., /, space 
character etc) with espeak native hungarian language dictionary, because

this characters handled with old gnome-speech method now, and 
speech-dispatcher only use espeak directly and skyp the gnome-speech 
central method, I do this task welcome. What place I send the hu_list 
and hu_rules file when I done this task? Or have better method to fix 
this problem but not disturb another language users?

3. The "Replace Run Application (Alt+F2) with gnome-do "milestone I read

following:
"gnome-do can do everything that gnome's default run application windows

can do. replace the current run application(alt+f2) with gnome-do." What
will be happen with accessibility? When I look gnome-do in Jaunty, 
this application was impossible to using Orca screen reader.

Thanks,

Attila

new orca doesn't work as well in karmic

2009-07-14 Thread mike
Hi, there was a Orca update in karmic today. After getting the updates, I 
notice a lot of the items in the top panel like volume control that use to be 
announced are no longer announced. In fact Orca says nothing at all when you 
get to them using the tab key. Using CTRL f 1will sometimes give you some info, 
but not always.
Mike.

Use the latest development version at:
http://espeak.sf.net/test/latest.html

I expect that this will go into Ubuntu Karmic, after I release it as
eSpeak version 1.42 some time during the next few weeks.

Dear List!

Thank you Jonathan.
What Espeak version have with Karmic?
Or I use latest test version when I edit the needed changes?
I ask this, because latest test version known ordinal numbers, and I 
would like look the hungarian ordinal numbers with 1 to 100.

Thanks,

Attila

Please any send changes for eSpeak hu_list and hu_rules to me at:
jo...@users.sourceforge.net

Currently, hu_list contains the pronunciations for some punctuation
characters (at the end of the hu_list file).  You can test these by
doing a command, for example:

espeak -v hu --punct "."

This should say "pont".

The pronunciation for "/" is missing in hu_list.  If you tell me name
for "/" (and any others), then I will add them to eSpeak.

Lobbying for Orca?

2009-07-14 Thread Bill Cox
There is a scary article on Slashdot.org this morning about
speculation that Oracle will end support for OpenSolaris:

http://developers.slashdot.org/story/09/07/13/1847254/Mass-Speculation-Suggests-Oracle-May-Kill-OpenSolaris?art_pos=16

If there is any truth to this, is there anything we Orca users can do
to lobby Oracle for continuing support for Orca, whether based on
OpenSolaris, or Oracle's brand of Linux?  The kind of think I'm
thinking of might be finding employees we know at Oracle through our
linkedin network, and trying to insure Orca has high visibility
withing Oracle.

Bill
