When I had it working on Gentoo, I was impressed wit it's results.  At
that time, it provided better access than Gnopernicus to a
gnome-terminal.  The fact it will support scripting while Gnopernicus
won't makes it an appealing screen reader to me.

The fact it hasn't been updated since I had it working on Gentoo makes
me believe my problems running it are Debian specific.
