Ah. So if I install both screenreaders and configure both accordingly, the |
| 2 |
switch from one to the other should be seemless? Sorry, I'm just trying to |
| 3 |
get a handle on things over here for when I do actually proceed with the |
| 4 |
instalation. |

espeakup will run along side orca, but it has nothing to do with it.Hi |
| 16 |
James, |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Espeakup just allows speakup to use espeak as its synthesizer. So, if you |
| 19 |
enter graphics mode, orca will take over and speakup goes to sleep, so |
| 20 |
espeakup will not speak. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
gnome-speech has an espeak use flag, but you don't need to set it, since it |
| 23 |
is the default. |
