[Emacspeak] Re: Mac question

[Victor Tsaran <vtsaran@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Actually, just opened the "mac" server file and played around with the character factor value. For some reason, it was set to 1.8 by default. I changed it to 1 and the rate is much more palatable when typing. Not sure if it is supposed to work this way, but the character factor does not follow the speech rate, it will always stay at its value regardless to what the speech rate is set to.

Anyway...

Hi Bart!

I somehow ended up with a properly-functioning Emacspeak 57.0 on Mac OS 13.2. I really do not want to touch it until I really have to! :)

There is a remaining issue where the individual characters are spoken at a much higher rate when typed as opposed to when read back. I'd like to figure this out, but my knowledge of Lisp is too primitive to attempt the task.

For some reason, I thought Raman updated the repo with a fix, but perhaps it was in one of my dreams! :)

Perhaps start with the cleanup first and see if this fixes it?

Hi everyone,

I sent this yesterday, but I donâ??t think it made it to the list. Apologies if it turns up twice.

Iâ??ve finally got a new MacBook.

I am seeing something similar to that described by Greg and victor in December.

I have found anything later  than emacspeak 56 is throwing an error essentially preventing the mini buffer from working (see below)
Tried to do a. Git bisect but hit an issue where there was other bugs preventing the compilation from completing and my git bisect foo is currently insufficient to know how to work around this.  Iâ??ll do more research into how to deal with that sort of problem, presumably there is an option to tell git bisect to ignore that version.

Currently donâ??t have the actual error as it is proving hard to get.
Itâ??s something about error in mini buffer and â??back to top levelâ??

Iâ??ll dig deeper but was wondering if anyone else is hitting this and has a workaround and or is anyone using emacspeak 57 on Mac and not seeing this??

Kind regards

Bart
