Re: [Emacspeak] Sharpwin First (hopefully) Useable Release

Devin--

The C-x C-c and C-x left and C-x right not speaking buffer names, I 
can not reproduce either of these issues with my version of Emacs. 

Mine is the chocolatey version 29.2. I still see some strange stuff,
but both those things work as expected.
