[Emacspeak] Re: Issue with eldoc documentation not being read

[Tim Cross <theophilusx@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Isaac,

when you refer to lsp do you mean lsp-mode or eglot (the lsp client
which comes with emacs 29)?

Only reason I ask is I notice that recently some bugs relating to eglot
and eldoc were fixed. In particular, eglot was not honouring user eldco
configuration, which I suspect would break emacspeak integration with eldoc.

Details are in the emacs git log if interested.
