killing speech from cli

[Daniel Dalton]

Hey Zack,

Thanks for the reply. I thought you could echo none or your synth name
to the synth file in the sys file system, however, I can kill speech, but
can't get it back... I'll have to try the latest speakup out of guit
when I get time and see if I can do it with this...

Cheers,

Danny
