Espeak Problems

[Steve Holmes]

This is really strange.  I know I have what I believe to be the latest
version of speechd-up but --version says "0.1" but I just untarred
version 0.4.tar.gz and compiled and ran it with ./speechd-up --version
and it still says "0.1".  In any case, I can use the punctuation
controls from Speakup, being the speakup-f7 thru speakup-f10 keys and
punctuation levels do change.  I have no -t passed on the command line
either.  Makes me wonder about the version in the latest program.  Well,
I just looked at the detailed listing of the archive and speechd-up.c is
dated Oct 21, 2006 and options.h is from slightly earlier in 2006 but
the defined version number still says 0.1.:)

No such luck on espeak-generic taking punct levels yet:); I haven't
copied that conf file into my prod environment yet nor have I built it
yet, but that's for another day.:)  Anyway, I've always been able to use
speakup's punctuation level changes and took for granted that always
worked for all.  But I'm using English language too.
