Software Speech for Speakup

[Steve Holmes]

Does this mean the synth driver would need to be run as a daemon,
continually polling from /dev/softsynth?  If so, hence the meaning of
"speech server".  I'll have to look at the fopen or open function
documentation to see how to open in non-block mode.  Conceptually, it
sounds pretty easy.  But I could probably get fooled by that notion <heheheh>.
