Hello to everyone

[Amanda Lee]

I haven't looked on this ftp site but are there different archives for
different speech synthesizers?  Seems the only way to have a speaking
install of redhat with speakup is to have it configured to work with the
type of synthesizer one is using???

Guess will go on a hunt to see for myself! ha!  -  Amanda Lee
