Hi.
The actual problem wasn't with resume, but with the pause function. Thanks
to Gills pointers the following lines had to be added to the driver source
at the top of the pause function in order to keep emacspeak and Dectalk from
crashing.

static int nb=0;
if (!nb)
{
nb=1;
return TCL_OK;
}

Once these lines were applied Dectalk 4.61 worked fine with emacspeak and
also yasr.
 Another issue with the driver was that gcc 3.3 refused to compile code with
split lines, and i had to remove several line feeds in order to even get the
driver to compile with gcc 3.3 and Mandrake 9.2.
I'm not sure if these things were fixed in cvs, but in my emacspeak rpms
neither 18 or 19's dtk-soft driver worked until those changes were made.
