Hello,
Here is what is in my init file:
(load-file "/Users/gregwocher/emacspeak/lisp/emacspeak-setup.el")
(dtk-set-rate 250 t)
(setq ems--speak-max-line 3000 )


(custom-set-variables
;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom.
;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
'(mac-ignore-accessibility t)
'(mac-left-command-modifier 'meta)
'(mac-left-option-modifier 'super)
'(mac-right-command-modifier 'control)
'(mac-right-option-modifier 'hyper)
'(package-selected-packages '(emmet-mode elpy)))

(custom-set-faces
;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom.
;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
)

(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("melpa-stable" . "https://stable.melpa.org/packages/";))

How do I check the customize section for emacspeak? I stopped using emacs for
a bit and I am trying to get back into it.
