speakup, audio solutions

[Janina Sajka]

Yes, screen rocks!

I do keep the gui, mainly for firefox even though it requires that I use
a second audio device.

Everything else is tty's and screen terminals. About half of my tty's
launch subject specific screen sessions with multiple terminals. In all
of those, I have aliases for mplayer to talk to several additional audio
devices, or ecaplay, or aplay. All works like a charm.
