emacspeak: espeak speech server



Hi.

For those using emacspeak, if you do not know already, there
is an espeak speech server for Emacspeak available on Debian.
However, right now you need to patch the sources and compile them
yourself before you can use the speech server.

A patch to apply to
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/emacspeak/servers/linux-espeak/
can be found here:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=10;filename=linux-espeak.patch;att=1;bug=543920

Before you run make in
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/emacspeak/servers/linux-espeak/ you need
to apply the patch linked above and install tcl8.4-dev and libespeak-dev.

A wishlist bug has been filed against emacspeak to have linux-espeak
precompiled and shipped by default:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=543920

Given that emacspeak is arch: all, this will probably involve
the creation of a spearate binary package, something like
emacspeak-espeak.
