[Emacspeak] Strange speech in TOML files

[Alastair Irving <alastair.j.irving@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All

Has anyone else noticed strange characters being read in certain TOML 
files, for example the Cargo.toml in rust projects?  I'll copy a minimal 
example below, if you save in a .toml file and you're using the outloud 
server then speaking the [dependencies] line seems to include something 
like "v y 24".

I think the TOML mode built into Emacs is doing something buggy with 
text properties.  If I query the properties of the d in dependencies 
then it seems to have the same property repeated very many times.  This 
probably causes something broken to be sent to the server (when 
voice-lock is enabled).

If this is reproducible then I should probably submit a bug report to 
the maintainers of the TOML mode, although I'm not sure how to do that.  
IN the meantime can Emacspeak be fixed or do we not want to work around 
such broken inputs?

Best wishes

Alastair


Here's the TOML:


[package]
name = "test"

[dependencies]
