I don't use the emacspeak shell script to start emacs. What I do is
have the following in my .emacs startup file
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d")
(require 'tx-emacspeak)
and then, in my .emacs.d directory, I have the file tx-emacspeak.el,
which has the following
(add-to-list 'Info-default-directory-list
"/home/tcross/git/emacspeak/trunk/info")
(when (and (not noninteractive)
(not (featurep 'emacspeak))
(getenv "RUN_EMACSPEAK"))
(let ((src-path "/home/tcross/git/emacspeak/trunk/"))
(add-to-list 'load-path src-path)
(setenv "EMACSPEAK_DIR" src-path)
(setq emacspeak-aumix-multichannel-capable-p nil)
(setq tts-default-speech-rate 90)
(setq outloud-default-speech-rate 90)
(setq emacspeak-vm-use-raman-settings nil)
(add-hook 'emacspeak-startup-hook
(lambda ()
(dtk-set-rate tts-default-speech-rate 1)
(dtk-interp-sync)
(emacspeak-sounds-select-theme "chimes-stereo/")
(emacspeak-toggle-auditory-icons t)))
(load-file (concat src-path "/lisp/emacspeak-setup.el"))))
(provide 'tx-emacspeak)
Note that I have an exported shell variable called RUN_EMACSPEAK in my
.profile. If this is set, then emacspeak will startup when I start
emacs. Otherwise emacspeak is not loaded. My actual setup is a little
bit more complex because I sometimes run speechd instead of emacspeak.
Note also that I don't install emacspeak in
/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp as is normally the case when you run
make install. In fact, I don't run make install at all. I just keep
emacspeak in a directory (in my case /home/tcross/git/emacspeak/trunk)
and run it from out of there. I use git-svn to interface to the svn
repo on google.
I can then just run emacs or emacs --daemon etc.
Also, note that you can start the emacs server even after running
emacs by using the M-x server-start. Possibly a good way to try out
using emacsclient and chekcing you have things setup before making the
final switch.
