peaceful coexistence of Speakup and Emacspeak

[Janina Sajka]

ViaVoice for linux is IBM text to speech software that works with a sound 
card. It's the thing customarily known as software speech--like Eloquence 
for JFW and Window-Eyes on Windows. In other words, you use the generic 
sound card instead of a hardware speech sytnthesizer.

Will you need it? Perhaps. It won't be that hard to install if and when 
the time comes. The hardest part, in my view, is filling out the form at 
the IBM web site that grants you the license to get a copy.
