maybe a speakup users guide update is in order

I read down through the users guide and will check slackware to see if 
speakup_soft is in the kernel shortly.  If that's the case, espeakup 
probably will be able to come up as the user space stuff gets loaded.  
However, I have espeak running using portaudio-19 as its base.  If this 
way of running espeak is at least as good as flite or festival maybe 
another speech support package ought to be added to the users guide.  
That I don't yet know.  I couldn't get the latest version of speechtools 
and festival to build without errors on slackware 13.0 though which is how 
I ended up trying what I'm now trying.
