Re: New to Emacspeak and Emacs

[Erik Heil <eheil@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi their.
While I didn't get Espeak to work successfully, I did manage to get eflite
working just fine.  I can tell that the icons are cook, however, maybe one
of you an confirm this but apparently, Eflite doesn't support auditory
icon themes.  Also, it doesn't seem like the Debian package contains the
stereo versions of the default sound themes.  So where and how would I
install additional themes?  Thanks for all the help.  its really
appreciated.
