Bug#767595: espeakup: doesn't speak all keypresses

[Samuel Thibault <sthibault@debian.org>]

Package: espeakup
Version: 1:0.71-16
Severity: important
Tags: upload

Hello,

While using speakup with espeakup, not all keypresses get spoken, e.g.
^ doesn't get spoken at all.  Worse, requesting character-by-character
reading of the screen doesn't speak it either.  This can be fixed by
telling espeak to say-as tts:char in SSML.  Fix pending upload.

Samuel

<xterm> The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?
