Hi,

Ok thanks it's perfect. Now I understand better. Indeej not need to
change code :)

Now only a very important problem stay: 1. changing language or at least
choose language; 2. in French with iso environment, it doesn't read
accents. Caused by connector? speakup itself?

Thanks for help,


Jean-Philippe MENGUAL

If it is not, where is it on keypad? If it is, in my terminal, I can't combine 2 keys: when I do it, Insert is ont recogniued (either it generates a [[2~ sign, either, if I do ins+t, I get a t written on screen). So ins+3 of keypad acts as 3 key alone. How can I do?
