[Emacspeak] Re: Getting Started

Do you have emacspeak working?

If not, just install Slint, especially if you are visually impaired.

It's a no brainer as far as I'm concerned.

So much easier than messing with Ubuntu or Debian.

But there are some things that Ubuntu or Debian can do that Slint doesn't have -

But I'm very impressed with Slint / Slackware - removing and reinstalling a program has saved me many times from having an unworkable system.

The most recent Slint release is 14.2.1.1.2 (64-bit).

The ISO file slint64-14.2.1.2.iso is not stored here, but in http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-14.2.1/iso/

Installation instructions http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-14.2.1/README.installation

What's new: http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-14.2.1/README-14.2.1.2

I have a working ubuntu distribution running on a little laptop, but I can do something different if I need to in order to make the setup easier.

For someone like me who has no idea at all where to go to get started,
how would you suggest I begin learning? My experience with computers has
been diverse with some Linux, but mostly Microsoft Windows and Apple
Macintosh. Please be gentle with a user with absolutely no idea of what
emacspeak is and how to get productive using it.
