I would say that speakuputils is just about a moot point now.  The
latest CVS versions of Speakup have additional keys for changing
pitch, rate and volume. from the console now.  Just use speakup-1 thru
speakup-6 to change them.  <Hmmm> no tone or voice here.  Any way,
we're close.  The speakupconf script that can be found in
/usr/src/linux/drivers/char/speakup can save and restore speech
settings and is sensative to which synth is being used at the time.
