interesting experiment.

[Octavian Rasnita]

Ok, at least I know what is the problem now.
Are there any better software sinthesizers than Via voice  that can work
with emacspeak?
I don't care too much about responsiveness. I care about the sound quality.

Thanks.

I believe he is speaking of ViaVoice, and it does crash. Now, if
the source were available, someone of us would undoubtedly have
solved this issue. But it isn't.

So, don't blame Linux. Blame IBM and the Windows mindset that
they brought to Linux in ViaVoice.
