This may be partly a windoze question. I use this on a windoze box: (defun espeak-region () "Send the region to espeak" (interactive)(shell-command-on-region (region-beginning) (region-end) "espeak -v mb-en1 -p 50 -s 150 --stdin ")
)It works, but it locks up emacs until espeak has finished reading the text. Is there a way of spawning espeak as an autonomous process which can finish in its own time?
