On 2007 Jan 23, an instance of Emacspeak of that date using espeakf
(and that date's CVS Emacs) stopped producing sound. After evaluating
(global-font-lock-mode nil)
I could hear, but the speech rate was very slow. I could not set the
speed higher and reported a bug to the espeakf person,
adbingham@xxxxxxxxxxx
(Since then I have shifted to eflite, which does not express different
voices according to different faces.)
I am not certain what the problem is, except that
(progn (setq font-lock-keywords-only t) (font-lock-mode t))
produces good faces on a Texinfo test file -- and silence when using
espeakf and no different voices when using eflite.
That is when using
