I tried to install yasr everything seemed to go smoothly. Still don't  
know if it will work do you know how I would edit the config file?  
Like do you know the name of the config file? From what I have read I  
need to remove the remark character for my speech synthesizer which is  
a doubletalk lt. And then I would make emacspeaks a remark, then save  
the config file does that sound right?
