configuring espeak 1.19

Hi everyone, especially Jonathan <smile>

I have installed espeak 1.19 and have two questions about configuring 
it.

I want to use the new en-r voice selection. Using speak from the command 
line like this, works fine:

speak -v en-r "sample of speech goes here"

but when I add the -v switch to the espeak-module.conf file in the 
speech-dispatcher modules directory, it is ignored.

How can I persuade speech-dispatcher to use the en-r voice?

Second, how do I install the libespeak shared library, which seems 
compiled successfully, but not installed? 

Thanks for any help here. The new voicing sounds pretty good on the 
command line, good enough to promote to speech-dispatcher if I can.

Great job, Jonathan, bloody good!

Chuck
