Re: [Emacspeak] Announcing "swiftmac" a new voice server for MacOS

[Victor Tsaran <vtsaran@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi RObert.

Not sure if it works on your end, but even though it is a valid function, it prevents my Emacspeak from loading when I use it in my initialization file.

The Emacs debugger is equally unhappy when I start Emacs with the --debug-init option.

Does it work for you?

What in specific do you think is wrong with that line?
