+
+Preface
+
+The purpose of this document is to familiarize users with the user
+interface to Speakup, a Linux Screen Reader. If you need instructions
+for installing or obtaining Speakup, visit the web site at
+http://linux-speakup.org/. Speakup is a set of patches to the standard
+Linux kernel source tree. It can be built as a series of modules, or as
+a part of a monolithic kernel. These details are beyond the scope of
+this manual, but the user may need to be aware of the module
+capabilities, depending on how your system administrator has installed
+Speakup. If Speakup is built as a part of a monolithic kernel, and the
+user is using a hardware synthesizer, then Speakup will be able to
+provide speech access from the time the kernel is loaded, until the time
+the system is shutdown. This means that if you have obtained Linux
+installation media for a distribution which includes Speakup as a part
+of its kernel, you will be able, as a blind person, to install Linux
+with speech access unaided by a sighted person. Again, these details
+are beyond the scope of this manual, but the user should be aware of
+them. See the web site mentioned above for further details.
+
+1. Starting Speakup
+
+If your system administrator has installed Speakup to work with your
+specific synthesizer by default, then all you need to do to use Speakup
+is to boot your system, and Speakup should come up talking. This
+assumes of course that your synthesizer is a supported hardware
+synthesizer, and that it is either installed in or connected to your
+system, and is if necessary powered on.
+
+It is possible, however, that Speakup may have been compiled into the
+kernel with no default synthesizer. It is even possible that your
+kernel has been compiled with support for some of the supported
+synthesizers and not others. If you find that this is the case, and
+your synthesizer is supported but not available, complain to the person
+who compiled and installed your kernel. Or better yet, go to the web
+site, and learn how to patch Speakup into your own kernel source, and
+build and install your own kernel.
+
+If your kernel has been compiled with Speakup, and has no default
+synthesizer set, or you would like to use a different synthesizer than
+the default one, then you may issue the following command at the boot
+prompt of your boot loader.
+
+linux speakup.synth=ltlk
+
+This command would tell Speakup to look for and use a LiteTalk or
+DoubleTalk LT at boot up. You may replace the ltlk synthesizer keyword
+with the keyword for whatever synthesizer you wish to use. The
+speakup.synth parameter will accept the following keywords, provided
+that support for the related synthesizers has been built into the
+kernel.
+
+acntsa -- Accent SA
+acntpc -- Accent PC
+apollo -- Apollo
+audptr -- Audapter
+bns -- Braille 'n Speak
+dectlk -- DecTalk Express (old and new, db9 serial only)
+decext -- DecTalk (old) External
+dtlk -- DoubleTalk PC
+keypc -- Keynote Gold PC
+ltlk -- DoubleTalk LT, LiteTalk, or external Tripletalk (db9 serial only)
+spkout -- Speak Out
+txprt -- Transport
+dummy -- Plain text terminal
+
+Note: Speakup does * NOT * support usb connections! Speakup also does *
+NOT * support the internal Tripletalk!
+
+Speakup does support two other synthesizers, but because they work in
+conjunction with other software, they must be loaded as modules after
+their related software is loaded, and so are not available at boot up.
+These are as follows:
+
+decpc -- DecTalk PC (not available at boot up)
+soft -- One of several software synthesizers (not available at boot up)
+
+See the sections on loading modules and software synthesizers later in
+this manual for further details. It should be noted here that the
+speakup.synth boot parameter will have no effect if Speakup has been
+compiled as modules. In order for Speakup modules to be loaded during
+the boot process, such action must be configured by your system
+administrator. This will mean that you will hear some, but not all, of
+the bootup messages.
+
+2. Basic operation
+
+Once you have booted the system, and if necessary, have supplied the
+proper bootup parameter for your synthesizer, Speakup will begin
+talking as soon as the kernel is loaded. In fact, it will talk a lot!
+It will speak all the boot up messages that the kernel prints on the
+screen during the boot process. This is because Speakup is not a
+separate screen reader, but is actually built into the operating
+system. Since almost all console applications must print text on the
+screen using the kernel, and must get their keyboard input through the
+kernel, they are automatically handled properly by Speakup. There are a
+few exceptions, but we'll come to those later.
+
+Note: In this guide I will refer to the numeric keypad as the keypad.
+This is done because the speakupmap.map file referred to later in this
+manual uses the term keypad instead of numeric keypad. Also I'm lazy
+and would rather only type one word. So keypad it is. Got it? Good.
+
+Most of the Speakup review keys are located on the keypad at the far
+right of the keyboard. The numlock key should be off, in order for these
+to work. If you toggle the numlock on, the keypad will produce numbers,
+which is exactly what you want for spreadsheets and such. For the
+purposes of this guide, you should have the numlock turned off, which is
+its default state at bootup.
+
+You probably won't want to listen to all the bootup messages every time
+you start your system, though it's a good idea to listen to them at
+least once, just so you'll know what kind of information is available to
+you during the boot process. You can always review these messages after
+bootup with the command:
+
+dmesg | more
+
+In order to speed the boot process, and to silence the speaking of the
+bootup messages, just press the keypad enter key. This key is located
+in the bottom right corner of the keypad. Speakup will shut up and stay
+that way, until you press another key.
+
+You can check to see if the boot process has completed by pressing the 8
+key on the keypad, which reads the current line. This also has the
+effect of starting Speakup talking again, so you can press keypad enter
+to silence it again if the boot process has not completed.
+
+When the boot process is complete, you will arrive at a "login" prompt.
+At this point, you'll need to type in your user id and password, as
+provided by your system administrator. You will hear Speakup speak the
+letters of your user id as you type it, but not the password. This is
+because the password is not displayed on the screen for security
+reasons. This has nothing to do with Speakup, it's a Linux security
+feature.
+
+Once you've logged in, you can run any Linux command or program which is
+allowed by your user id. Normal users will not be able to run programs
+which require root privileges.
+
+When you are running a program or command, Speakup will automatically
+speak new text as it arrives on the screen. You can at any time silence
+the speech with keypad enter, or use any of the Speakup review keys.
+
+Here are some basic Speakup review keys, and a short description of what
+they do.
+
+keypad 1 -- read previous character
+keypad 2 -- read current character (pressing keypad 2 twice rapidly will speak
+ the current character phonetically)
+keypad 3 -- read next character
+keypad 4 -- read previous word
+keypad 5 -- read current word (press twice rapidly to spell the current word)
+keypad 6 -- read next word
+keypad 7 -- read previous line
+keypad 8 -- read current line (press twice rapidly to hear how much the
+ text on the current line is indented)
+keypad 9 -- read next line
+keypad period -- speak current cursor position and announce current
+ virtual console
+
+It's also worth noting that the insert key on the keypad is mapped
+as the speakup key. Instead of pressing and releasing this key, as you
+do under DOS or Windows, you hold it like a shift key, and press other
+keys in combination with it. For example, repeatedly holding keypad
+insert, from now on called speakup, and keypad enter will toggle the
+speaking of new text on the screen on and off. This is not the same as
+just pressing keypad enter by itself, which just silences the speech
+until you hit another key. When you hit speakup plus keypad enter,
+Speakup will say, "You turned me off.", or "Hey, that's better." When
+Speakup is turned off, no new text on the screen will be spoken. You
+can still use the reading controls to review the screen however.
+
+3. Using the Speakup Help System
+
+In order to enter the Speakup help system, press and hold the speakup
+key (remember that this is the keypad insert key), and press the f1 key.
+You will hear the message:
+
+"Press space to leave help, cursor up or down to scroll, or a letter to
+go to commands in list."
+
+When you press the spacebar to leave the help system, you will hear:
+
+"Leaving help."
+
+While you are in the Speakup help system, you can scroll up or down
+through the list of available commands using the cursor keys. The list
+of commands is arranged in alphabetical order. If you wish to jump to
+commands in a specific part of the alphabet, you may press the letter of
+the alphabet you wish to jump to.
+
+You can also just explore by typing keyboard keys. Pressing keys will
+cause Speakup to speak the command associated with that key. For
+example, if you press the keypad 8 key, you will hear:
+
+"Keypad 8 is line, say current."
+
+You'll notice that some commands do not have keys assigned to them.
+This is because they are very infrequently used commands, and are also
+accessible through the sys system. We'll discuss the sys system later
+in this manual.
+
+You'll also notice that some commands have two keys assigned to them.
+This is because Speakup has a built in set of alternative key bindings
+for laptop users. The alternate speakup key is the caps lock key. You
+can press and hold the caps lock key, while pressing an alternate
+speakup command key to activate the command. On most laptops, the
+numeric keypad is defined as the keys in the j k l area of the keyboard.
+
+There is usually a function key which turns this keypad function on and
+off, and some other key which controls the numlock state. Toggling the
+keypad functionality on and off can become a royal pain. So, Speakup
+gives you a simple way to get at an alternative set of key mappings for
+your laptop. These are also available by default on desktop systems,
+because Speakup does not know whether it is running on a desktop or
+laptop. So you may choose which set of Speakup keys to use. Some
+system administrators may have chosen to compile Speakup for a desktop
+system without this set of alternate key bindings, but these details are
+beyond the scope of this manual. To use the caps lock for its normal
+purpose, hold the shift key while toggling the caps lock on and off. We
+should note here, that holding the caps lock key and pressing the z key
+will toggle the alternate j k l keypad on and off.
+
+4. Keys and Their Assigned Commands
+
+In this section, we'll go through a list of all the speakup keys and
+commands. You can also get a list of commands and assigned keys from
+the help system.
+
+The following list was taken from the speakupmap.map file. Key
+assignments are on the left of the equal sign, and the associated
+Speakup commands are on the right. The designation "spk" means to press
+and hold the speakup key, a.k.a. keypad insert, a.k.a. caps lock, while
+pressing the other specified key.

+
+5. The Speakup Sys System
+
+The Speakup screen reader also creates a speakup subdirectory as a part
+of the sys system.
+
+As a convenience, run as root
+
+ln -s /sys/accessibility/speakup /speakup
+
+to directly access speakup parameters from /speakup.
+You can see these entries by typing the command:
+
+ls -1 /speakup/*
+
+If you issue the above ls command, you will get back something like
+this:
+
+/speakup/attrib_bleep
+/speakup/bell_pos
+/speakup/bleep_time
+/speakup/bleeps
+/speakup/cursor_time
+/speakup/delimiters
+/speakup/ex_num
+/speakup/key_echo
+/speakup/keymap
+/speakup/no_interrupt
+/speakup/punc_all
+/speakup/punc_level
+/speakup/punc_most
+/speakup/punc_some
+/speakup/reading_punc
+/speakup/repeats
+/speakup/say_control
+/speakup/say_word_ctl
+/speakup/silent
+/speakup/spell_delay
+/speakup/synth
+/speakup/synth_direct
+/speakup/version
+
+/speakup/i18n:
+announcements
+characters
+chartab
+colors
+ctl_keys
+formatted
+function_names
+key_names
+states
+
+/speakup/soft:
+caps_start
+caps_stop
+delay_time
+direct
+freq
+full_time
+jiffy_delta
+pitch
+punct
+rate
+tone
+trigger_time
+voice
+vol
+
+Notice the two subdirectories of /speakup: /speakup/i18n and
+/speakup/soft.
+The i18n subdirectory is described in a later section.
+The files under /speakup/soft represent settings that are specific to the
+driver for the software synthesizer. If you use the LiteTalk, your
+synthesizer-specific settings would be found in /speakup/ltlk. In other words,
+a subdirectory named /speakup/KWD is created to hold parameters specific
+to the device whose keyword is KWD.
+These parameters include volume, rate, pitch, and others.
+
+In addition to using the Speakup hot keys to change such things as
+volume, pitch, and rate, you can also echo values to the appropriate
+entry in the /speakup directory. This is very useful, since it
+lets you control Speakup parameters from within a script. How you
+would write such scripts is somewhat beyond the scope of this manual,
+but I will include a couple of simple examples here to give you a
+general idea of what such scripts can do.
+
+Suppose for example, that you wanted to control both the punctuation
+level and the reading punctuation level at the same time. For
+simplicity, we'll call them punc0, punc1, punc2, and punc3. The scripts
+might look something like this:
+
+#!/bin/bash
+# punc0
+# set punc and reading punc levels to 0
+echo 0 >/speakup/punc_level
+echo 0 >/speakup/reading_punc
+echo Punctuation level set to 0.
+
+#!/bin/bash
+# punc1
+# set punc and reading punc levels to 1
+echo 1 >/speakup/punc_level
+echo 1 >/speakup/reading_punc
+echo Punctuation level set to 1.
+
+#!/bin/bash
+# punc2
+# set punc and reading punc levels to 2
+echo 2 >/speakup/punc_level
+echo 2 >/speakup/reading_punc
+echo Punctuation level set to 2.
+
+#!/bin/bash
+# punc3
+# set punc and reading punc levels to 3
+echo 3 >/speakup/punc_level
+echo 3 >/speakup/reading_punc
+echo Punctuation level set to 3.
+
+If you were to store these four small scripts in a directory in your
+path, perhaps /usr/local/bin, and set the permissions to 755 with the
+chmod command, then you could change the default reading punc and
+punctuation levels at the same time by issuing just one command. For
+example, if you were to execute the punc3 command at your shell prompt,
+then the reading punc and punc level would both get set to 3.
+
+I should note that the above scripts were written to work with bash, but
+regardless of which shell you use, you should be able to do something
+similar.
+
+The Speakup sys system also has another interesting use. You can echo
+Speakup parameters into the sys system in a script during system
+startup, and speakup will return to your preferred parameters every time
+the system is rebooted.
+
+Most of the Speakup sys parameters can be manipulated by a regular user
+on the system. However, there are a few parameters that are dangerous
+enough that they should only be manipulated by the root user on your
+system. There are even some parameters that are read only, and cannot
+be written to at all. For example, the version entry in the Speakup
+sys system is read only. This is because there is no reason for a user
+to tamper with the version number which is reported by Speakup. Doing
+an ls -l on /speakup/version will return this:
+
+-r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 21 13:46 /speakup/version
+
+As you can see, the version entry in the Speakup sys system is read
+only, is owned by root, and belongs to the root group. Doing a cat of
+/speakup/version will display the Speakup version number, like
+this:
+
+cat /speakup/version
+Speakup v-2.00 CVS: Thu Oct 21 10:38:21 EDT 2004
+synth dtlk version 1.1
+
+The display shows the Speakup version number, along with the version
+number of the driver for the current synthesizer.
+
+Looking at entries in the Speakup sys system can be useful in many
+ways. For example, you might wish to know what level your volume is set
+at. You could type:
+
+cat /speakup/KWD/vol
+# Replace KWD with the keyword for your synthesizer, E.G., ltlk for LiteTalk.
+5
+
+The number five which comes back is the level at which the synthesizer
+volume is set at.
+
+All the entries in the Speakup sys system are readable, some are
+writable by root only, and some are writable by everyone. Unless you
+know what you are doing, you should probably leave the ones that are
+writable by root only alone. Most of the names are self explanatory.
+Vol for controlling volume, pitch for pitch, rate for controlling speaking
+rate, etc. If you find one you aren't sure about, you can post a query
+on the Speakup list.
+
+6. Changing Synthesizers
+
+It is possible to change to a different synthesizer while speakup is
+running. In other words, it is not necessary to reboot the system
+in order to use a different synthesizer. You can simply echo the
+synthesizer keyword to the /speakup/synth sys entry.
+Depending on your situation, you may wish to echo none to the synth
+sys entry, to disable speech while one synthesizer is disconnected and
+a second one is connected in its place. Then echo the keyword for the
+new synthesizer into the synth sys entry in order to start speech
+with the newly connected synthesizer. See the list of synthesizer
+keywords in section 1 to find the keyword which matches your synth.
+
+7. Loading modules
+
+As mentioned earlier, Speakup can either be completely compiled into the
+kernel, with the exception of the help module, or it can be compiled as
+a series of modules. When compiled as modules, Speakup will only be
+able to speak some of the bootup messages if your system administrator
+has configured the system to load the modules at boo time. The modules
+can be loaded after the file systems have been checked and mounted, or
+from an initrd. There is a third possibility. Speakup can be compiled
+with some components built into the kernel, and others as modules. As
+we'll see in the next section, this is particularly useful when you are
+working with software synthesizers.
+
+If Speakup is completely compiled as modules, then you must use the
+modprobe command to load Speakup. You do this by loading the module for
+the synthesizer driver you wish to use. The driver modules are all
+named speakup_<keyword>, where <keyword> is the keyword for the
+synthesizer you want. So, in order to load the driver for the DecTalk
+Express, you would type the following command:
+
+modprobe speakup_dectlk
+
+Issuing this command would load the DecTalk Express driver and all other
+related Speakup modules necessary to get Speakup up and running.
+
+To completely unload Speakup, again presuming that it is entirely built
+as modules, you would give the command:
+
+modprobe -r speakup_dectlk
+
+The above command assumes you were running a DecTalk Express. If you
+were using a different synth, then you would substitute its keyword in
+place of dectlk.
+
+If you have multiple drivers loaded, you need to unload all of them, in
+order to completely unload Speakup.
+For example, if you have loaded both the dectlk and ltlk drivers, use the
+command:
+modprobe -r speakup_dectlk speakup_ltlk
+
+You cannot unload the driver for software synthesizers when a user-space
+daemon is using /dev/softsynth. First, kill the daemon. Next, remove
+the driver with the command:
+modprobe -r speakup_soft
+
+Now, suppose we have a situation where the main Speakup component
+is built into the kernel, and some or all of the drivers are built as
+modules. Since the main part of Speakup is compiled into the kernel, a
+partial Speakup sys system has been created which we can take advantage
+of by simply echoing the synthesizer keyword into the
+/speakup/synth sys entry. This will cause the kernel to
+automatically load the appropriate driver module, and start Speakup
+talking. To switch to another synth, just echo a new keyword to the
+synth sys entry. For example, to load the DoubleTalk LT driver,
+you would type:
+
+echo ltlk >/speakup/synth
+
+You can use the modprobe -r command to unload driver modules, regardless
+of whether the main part of Speakup has been built into the kernel or
+not.
+
+8. Using Software Synthesizers
+
+Using a software synthesizer requires that some other software be
+installed and running on your system. For this reason, software
+synthesizers are not available for use at bootup, or during a system
+installation process.
+There are two freely-available solutions for software speech: Espeakup and
+Speech Dispatcher.
+These are described in subsections 8.1 and 8.2, respectively.
+
+During the rest of this section, we assume that speakup_soft is either
+built in to your kernel, or loaded as a module.
+
+If your system does not have udev installed , before you can use a
+software synthesizer, you must have created the /dev/softsynth device.
+If you have not already done so, issue the following commands as root:
+
+cd /dev
+mknod softsynth c 10 26
+
+While we are at it, we might just as well create the /dev/synth device,
+which can be used to let user space programs send information to your
+synthesizer. To create /dev/synth, change to the /dev directory, and
+issue the following command as root:
+
+mknod synth c 10 25
+
+of both.
+
+8.1. Espeakup
+
+Espeakup is a connector between Speakup and the eSpeak software synthesizer.
+Espeakup may already be available as a package for your distribution
+of Linux. If it is not packaged, you need to install it manually.
+You can find it in the contrib/ subdirectory of the Speakup sources.
+The filename is espeakup-$VERSION.tar.bz2, where $VERSION
+depends on the current release of Espeakup. The Speakup 3.1.2 source
+ships with version 0.71 of Espeakup.
+The README file included with the Espeakup sources describes the process
+of manual installation.
+
+Assuming that Espeakup is installed, either by the user or by the distributor,
+follow these steps to use it.
+
+Tell Speakup to use the "soft driver:
+echo soft > /speakup/synth
+
+Finally, start the espeakup program. There are two ways to do it.
+Both require root privileges.
+
+If Espeakup was installed as a package for your Linux distribution,
+you probably have a distribution-specific script that controls the operation
+of the daemon. Look for a file named espeakup under /etc/init.d or
+/etc/rc.d. Execute the following command with root privileges:
+/etc/init.d/espeakup start
+Replace init.d with rc.d, if your distribution uses scripts located under
+/etc/rc.d.
+Your distribution will also have a procedure for starting daemons at
+boot-time, so it is possible to have software speech as soon as user-space
+daemons are started by the bootup scripts.
+These procedures are not described in this document.
+
+If you built Espeakup manually, the "make install" step placed the binary
+under /usr/bin.
+Run the following command as root:
+/usr/bin/espeakup
+Espeakup should start speaking.
+
+8.2. Speech Dispatcher
+
+For this option, you must have a package called
+Speech Dispatcher running on your system, and it must be configured to
+work with one of its supported software synthesizers.
+
+Two open source synthesizers you might use are Flite and Festival. You
+might also choose to purchase the Software DecTalk from Fonix Sales Inc.
+If you run a google search for Fonix, you'll find their web site.
+
+You can obtain a copy of Speech Dispatcher from free(b)soft at
+http://www.freebsoft.org/. Follow the installation instructions that
+come with Speech Dispatcher in order to install and configure Speech
+Dispatcher. You can check out the web site for your Linux distribution
+in order to get a copy of either Flite or Festival. Your Linux
+distribution may also have a precompiled Speech Dispatcher package.
+
+Once you've installed, configured, and tested Speech Dispatcher with your
+chosen software synthesizer, you still need one more piece of software
+in order to make things work. You need a package called speechd-up.
+You get it from the free(b)soft web site mentioned above. After you've
+compiled and installed speechd-up, you are almost ready to begin using
+your software synthesizer.
+
+Now you can begin using your software synthesizer. In order to do so,
+echo the soft keyword to the synth sys entry like this:
+
+echo soft >/speakup/synth
+
+Next run the speechd_up command like this:
+
+speechd_up &
+
+Your synth should now start talking, and you should be able to adjust
+the pitch, rate, etc.
+
+9. Using The DecTalk PC Card
+
+The DecTalk PC card is an ISA card that is inserted into one of the ISA
+slots in your computer. It requires that the DecTalk PC software be
+installed on your computer, and that the software be loaded onto the
+Dectalk PC card before it can be used.
+
+You can get the dec_pc.tgz file from the linux-speakup.org site. The
+dec_pc.tgz file is in the ~ftp/pub/linux/speakup directory.
+
+After you have downloaded the dec_pc.tgz file, untar it in your home
+directory, and read the Readme file in the newly created dec_pc
+directory.
+
+The easiest way to get the software working is to copy the entire dec_pc
+directory into /user/local/lib. To do this, su to root in your home
+directory, and issue the command:
+
+cp dec_pc /usr/local/lib
+
+You will need to copy the dtload command from the dec_pc directory to a
+directory in your path. Either /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin is a good
+choice.
+
+You can now run the dtload command in order to load the DecTalk PC
+software onto the card. After you have done this, echo the decpc
+keyword to the synth entry in the sys system like this:
+
+echo decpc >/speakup/synth
+
+Your DecTalk PC should start talking, and then you can adjust the pitch,
+rate, volume, voice, etc. The voice entry in the Speakup sys system
+will accept a number from 0 through 7 for the DecTalk PC synthesizer,
+which will give you access to some of the DecTalk voices.
+
+10. Using Cursor Tracking
+
+In Speakup version 2.0 and later, cursor tracking is turned on by
+default. This means that when you are using an editor, Speakup will
+automatically speak characters as you move left and right with the
+cursor keys, and lines as you move up and down with the cursor keys.
+This is the traditional sort of cursor tracking.
+Recent versions of Speakup provide two additional ways to control the
+text that is spoken when the cursor is moved:
+"highlight tracking" and "read window."
+They are described later in this section.
+Sometimes, these modes get in your way, so you can disable cursor tracking
+altogether.
+
+You may select among the various forms of cursor tracking using the keypad
+asterisk key.
+Each time you press this key, a new mode is selected, and Speakup speaks
+the name of the new mode. The names for the four possible states of cursor
+tracking are: "cursoring on", "highlight tracking", "read window",
+and "cursoring off." The keypad asterisk key moves through the list of
+modes in a circular fashion.
+
+If highlight tracking is enabled, Speakup tracks highlighted text,
+rather than the cursor itself. When you move the cursor with the arrow keys,
+Speakup speaks the currently highlighted information.
+This is useful when moving through various menus and dialog boxes.
+If cursor tracking isn't helping you while navigating a menu,
+try highlight tracking.
+
+With the "read window" variety of cursor tracking, you can limit the text
+that Speakup speaks by specifying a window of interest on the screen.
+See section 15 for a description of the process of defining windows.
+When you move the cursor via the arrow keys, Speakup only speaks
+the contents of the window. This is especially helpful when you are hearing
+superfluous speech. Consider the following example.
+
+Suppose that you are at a shell prompt. You use bash, and you want to
+explore your command history using the up and down arrow keys. If you
+have enabled cursor tracking, you will hear two pieces of information.
+Speakup speaks both your shell prompt and the current entry from the
+command history. You may not want to hear the prompt repeated
+each time you move, so you can silence it by specifying a window. Find
+the last line of text on the screen. Clear the current window by pressing
+the key combination speakup f3. Use the review cursor to find the first
+character that follows your shell prompt. Press speakup + f2 twice, to
+define a one-line window. The boundaries of the window are the
+character following the shell prompt and the end of the line. Now, cycle
+through the cursor tracking modes using keypad asterisk, until Speakup
+says "read window." Move through your history using your arrow keys.
+You will notice that Speakup no longer speaks the redundant prompt.
+
+Some folks like to turn cursor tracking off while they are using the
+lynx web browser. You definitely want to turn cursor tracking off when
+you are using the alsamixer application. Otherwise, you won't be able
+to hear your mixer settings while you are using the arrow keys.
+
+11. Cut and Paste
+
+One of Speakup's more useful features is the ability to cut and paste
+text on the screen. This means that you can capture information from a
+program, and paste that captured text into a different place in the
+program, or into an entirely different program, which may even be
+running on a different console.
+
+For example, in this manual, we have made references to several web
+sites. It would be nice if you could cut and paste these urls into your
+web browser. Speakup does this quite nicely. Suppose you wanted to
+past the following url into your browser:
+
+http://linux-speakup.org/
+
+Use the speakup review keys to position the reading cursor on the first
+character of the above url. When the reading cursor is in position,
+press the keypad slash key once. Speakup will say, "mark". Next,
+position the reading cursor on the rightmost character of the above
+url. Press the keypad slash key once again to actually cut the text
+from the screen. Speakup will say, "cut". Although we call this
+cutting, Speakup does not actually delete the cut text from the screen.
+It makes a copy of the text in a special buffer for later pasting.
+
+Now that you have the url cut from the screen, you can paste it into
+your browser, or even paste the url on a command line as an argument to
+your browser.
+
+Suppose you want to start lynx and go to the Speakup site.
+
+You can switch to a different console with the alt left and right
+arrows, or you can switch to a specific console by typing alt and a
+function key. These are not Speakup commands, just standard Linux
+console capabilities.
+
+Once you've changed to an appropriate console, and are at a shell prompt,
+type the word lynx, followed by a space. Now press and hold the speakup
+key, while you type the keypad slash character. The url will be pasted
+onto the command line, just as though you had typed it in. Press the
+enter key to execute the command.
+
+The paste buffer will continue to hold the cut information, until a new
+mark and cut operation is carried out. This means you can paste the cut
+information as many times as you like before doing another cut
+operation.
+
+You are not limited to cutting and pasting only one line on the screen.
+You can also cut and paste rectangular regions of the screen. Just
+position the reading cursor at the top left corner of the text to be
+cut, mark it with the keypad slash key, then position the reading cursor
+at the bottom right corner of the region to be cut, and cut it with the
+keypad slash key.
+
+12. Changing the Pronunciation of Characters
+
+Through the /speakup/i18n/characters sys entry, Speakup gives you the
+ability to change how Speakup pronounces a given character. You could,
+for example, change how some punctuation characters are spoken. You can
+even change how Speakup will pronounce certain letters.
+
+You may, for example, wish to change how Speakup pronounces the z
+character. The author of Speakup, Kirk Reiser, is Canadian, and thus
+believes that the z should be pronounced zed. If you are an American,
+you might wish to use the zee pronunciation instead of zed. You can
+change the pronunciation of both the upper and lower case z with the
+following two commands:
+
+echo 90 zee >/speakup/characters
+echo 122 zee >/speakup/characters
+
+Let's examine the parts of the two previous commands. They are issued
+at the shell prompt, and could be placed in a startup script.
+
+The word echo tells the shell that you want to have it display the
+string of characters that follow the word echo. If you were to just
+type:
+
+echo hello.
+
+You would get the word hello printed on your screen as soon as you
+pressed the enter key. In this case, we are echoing strings that we
+want to be redirected into the sys system.
+
+The numbers 90 and 122 in the above echo commands are the ascii numeric
+values for the upper and lower case z, the characters we wish to change.
+
+The string zee is the pronunciation that we want Speakup to use for the
+upper and lower case z.
+
+The > symbol redirects the output of the echo command to a file, just
+like in DOS, or at the Windows command prompt.
+
+And finally, /speakup/i18n/characters is the file entry in the sys system
+where we want the output to be directed. Speakup looks at the numeric
+value of the character we want to change, and inserts the pronunciation
+string into an internal table.
+
+You can look at the whole table with the following command:
+
+cat /speakup/i18n/characters
+
+Speakup will then print out the entire character pronunciation table. I
+won't display it here, but leave you to look at it at your convenience.
+
+13. Mapping Keys
+
+Speakup has the capability of allowing you to assign or "map" keys to
+internal Speakup commands. This section necessarily assumes you have a
+Linux kernel source tree installed, and that it has been patched and
+configured with Speakup. How you do this is beyond the scope of this
+manual. For this information, visit the Speakup web site at
+http://linux-speakup.org/. The reason you'll need the kernel source
+tree patched with Speakup is that the genmap utility you'll need for
+processing keymaps is in the
+/usr/src/linux-<version_number>/drivers/char/speakup directory. The
+<version_number> in the above directory path is the version number of
+the Linux source tree you are working with.
+
+So ok, you've gone off and gotten your kernel source tree, and patched
+and configured it. Now you can start manipulating keymaps.
+
+You can either use the
+/usr/src/linux-<version_number>/drivers/char/speakup/speakupmap.map file
+included with the Speakup source, or you can cut and paste the copy in
+section 4 into a separate file. If you use the one in the Speakup
+source tree, make sure you make a backup of it before you start making
+changes. You have been warned!
+
+Suppose that you want to swap the key assignments for the Speakup
+say_last_char and the Speakup say_first_char commands. The
+speakupmap.map lists the key mappings for these two commands as follows:
+
+spk key_pageup = say_first_char
+spk key_pagedown = say_last_char
+
+You can edit your copy of the speakupmap.map file and swap the command
+names on the right side of the = (equals) sign. You did make a backup,
+right? The new keymap lines would look like this:
+
+spk key_pageup = say_last_char
+spk key_pagedown = say_first_char
+
+After you edit your copy of the speakupmap.map file, save it under a new
+file name, perhaps newmap.map. Then exit your editor and return to the
+shell prompt.
+
+You are now ready to load your keymap with your swapped key assignments.
+ Assuming that you saved your new keymap as the file newmap.map, you
+would load your keymap into the sys system like this:
+
+/usr/src/linux-<version_number>/drivers/char/speakup/genmap newmap.map
+>/speakup/keymap
+
+Remember to substitute your kernel version number for the
+<version_number> in the above command. Also note that although the
+above command wrapped onto two lines in this document, you should type
+it all on one line.
+
+Your say first and say last characters should now be swapped. Pressing
+speakup pagedown should read you the first non-whitespace character on
+the line your reading cursor is in, and pressing speakup pageup should
+read you the last character on the line your reading cursor is in.
+
+You should note that these new mappings will only stay in effect until
+you reboot, or until you load another keymap.
+
+One final warning. If you try to load a partial map, you will quickly
+find that all the mappings you didn't include in your file got deleted
+from the working map. Be extremely careful, and always make a backup!
+You have been warned!
+
+14. Internationalizing Speakup
+
+Speakup indicates various conditions to the user by speaking messages.
+For instance, when you move to the left edge of the screen with the
+review keys, Speakup says, "left."
+Prior to version 3.1.0 of Speakup, all of these messages were in English,
+and they could not be changed. If you used a non-English synthesizer,
+you still heard English messages, such as "left" and "cursoring on."
+In version 3.1.0 or higher, one may load translations for the various
+messages via the /sys filesystem.
+
+The directory /speakup/i18n contains several collections of messages.
+Each group of messages is stored in its own file.
+The following section lists all of these files, along with a brief description
+of each.
+
+14.1. Files Under the i18n Subdirectory
+
+* announcements:
+This file contains various general announcements, most of which cannot
+be categorized. You will find messages such as "You killed Speakup",
+"I'm alive", "leaving help", "parked", "unparked", and others.
+You will also find the names of the screen edges and cursor tracking modes
+here.
+
+* characters:
+See section 12 for a description of this file.
+
+* chartab:
+See section 12. Unlike the rest of the files in the i18n subdirectory,
+this one does not contain messages to be spoken.
+
+* colors:
+When you use the "say attributes" function, Speakup says the name of the
+foreground and background colors. These names come from the i18n/colors
+file.
+
+* ctl_keys:
+Here, you will find names of control keys. These are used with Speakup's
+say_control feature.
+
+* formatted:
+This group of messages contains embedded formatting codes, to specify
+the type and width of displayed data. If you change these, you must
+preserve all of the formatting codes, and they must appear in the order
+used by the default messages.
+
+* function_names:
+Here, you will find a list of names for Speakup functions. These are used
+by the help system. For example, suppose that you have activated help mode,
+and you pressed keypad 3. Speakup says:
+"keypad 3 is character, say next."
+The message "character, say next" names a Speakup function, and it
+comes from this function_names file.
+
+* key_names:
+Again, key_names is used by Speakup's help system. In the previous
+example, Speakup said that you pressed "keypad 3."
+This name came from the key_names file.
+
+* states:
+This file contains names for key states.
+Again, these are part of the help system. For instance, if you had pressed
+speakup + keypad 3, you would hear:
+"speakup keypad 3 is go to bottom edge."
+The speakup key is depressed, so the name of the key state is speakup.
+This part of the message comes from the states collection.
+
+14.2. Loading Your Own Messages
+
+The files under the i18n subdirectory all follow the same format.
+They consist of lines, with one message per line.
+Each message is represented by a number, followed by the text of the message.
+The number is the position of the message in the given collection.
+For example, if you view the file /speakup/i18n/colors, you will see the
+following list:
+
+0 black
+1 blue
+2 green
+3 cyan
+4 red
+5 magenta
+6 yellow
+7 white
+8 grey
+
+You can change one message, or you can change a whole group.
+To load a whole collection of messages from a new source, simply use
+the cp command:
+cp ~/my_colors /speakup/i18n/colors
+You can change an individual message with the echo command,
+as shown in the following example.
+
+The Spanish name for the color blue is azul.
+Looking at the colors file, we see that the name "blue" is at position 1
+within the colors group. Let's change blue to azul:
+echo '1 azul' > /speakup/i18n/colors
+The next time that Speakup says message 1 from the colors group, it will
+say "azul", rather than "blue."
+
+In the future, translations into various languages will be made available,
+and most users will just load the files necessary for their language.
+
+14.3. No Support for Non-Western-European Languages
+
+As of the current release, Speakup only supports Western European languages.
+Support for the extended characters used by languages outside of the Western
+European family of languages is a work in progress.
+
+15. Using Speakup's Windowing Capability
+
+Speakup has the capability of defining and manipulating windows on the
+screen. Speakup uses the term "Window", to mean a user defined area of
+the screen. The key strokes for defining and manipulating Speakup
+windows are as follows:
+
+speakup + f2 -- Set the bounds of the window.
+Speakup + f3 -- clear the current window definition.
+speakup + f4 -- Toggle window silence on and off.
+speakup + keypad plus -- Say the currently defined window.
+
+These capabilities are useful for tracking a certain part of the screen
+without rereading the whole screen, or for silencing a part of the
+screen that is constantly changing, such as a clock or status line.
+
+There is no way to save these window settings, and you can only have one
+window defined for each virtual console. There is also no way to have
+windows automaticly defined for specific applications.
+
+In order to define a window, use the review keys to move your reading
+cursor to the beginning of the area you want to define. Then press
+speakup + f2. Speakup will tell you that the window starts at the
+indicated row and column position. Then move the reading cursor to the
+end of the area to be defined as a window, and press speakup + f2 again.
+ If there is more than one line in the window, Speakup will tell you
+that the window ends at the indicated row and column position. If there
+is only one line in the window, then Speakup will tell you that the
+window is the specified line on the screen. If you are only defining a
+one line window, you can just press speakup + f2 twice after placing the
+reading cursor on the line you want to define as a window. It is not
+necessary to position the reading cursor at the end of the line in order
+to define the whole line as a window.
+
+16. Tools for Controlling Speakup
+
+The speakup distribution includes extra tools (in the tools directory)
+which were written to make speakup easier to use. This section will
+briefly describe the use of these tools.
+
+16.1. Speakupconf
+
+speakupconf began life as a contribution from Steve Holmes, a member of
+the speakup community. We would like to thank him for his work on the
+early versions of this project.
+
+This script may be installed as part of your linux distribution, but if
+it isn't, the recommended places to put it are /usr/local/bin or
+/usr/bin. This script can be run by any user, so it does not require
+root privileges.
+
+Speakupconf allows you to save and load your Speakup settings. It works
+by reading and writing the /sys files described above.
+
+The directory that speakupconf uses to store your settings depends on
+whether it is run from the root account. If you execute speakupconf as
+root, it uses the directory /etc/speakup. Otherwise, it uses the directory
+~/.speakup, where ~ is your home directory.
+Anyone who needs to use Speakup from your console can load his own custom
+settings with this script.
+
+speakupconf takes one required argument: load or save.
+Use the command
+speakupconf save
+to save your Speakup settings, and
+speakupconf load
+to load them into Speakup.
+A second argument may be specified to use an alternate directory to
+load or save the speakup parameters.
+
+16.2. Talkwith
+
+Charles Hallenbeck, another member of the speakup community, wrote the
+initial versions of this script, and we would also like to thank him for
+his work on it.
+
+This script needs root privileges to run, so if it is not installed as
+part of your linux distribution, the recommended places to install it
+are /usr/local/sbin or /usr/sbin.
+
+Talkwith allows you to switch synthesizers on the fly. It takes a synthesizer
+name as an argument. For instance,
+talkwith dectlk
+causes Speakup to use the DecTalk Express. If you wish to switch to a
+software synthesizer, you must also indicate which daemon you wish to
+use. There are two possible choices:
+spd and espeakup. spd is an abbreviation for speechd-up.
+If you wish to use espeakup for software synthesis, give the command
+talkwith soft espeakup
+To use speechd-up, type:
+talkwith soft spd
+Any arguments that follow the name of the daemon are passed to the daemon
+when it is invoked. For instance:
+talkwith espeakup --default-voice=fr
+causes espeakup to use the French voice.
+Note that talkwith must always be executed with root privileges.
+
+Talkwith does not attempt to load your settings after the new
+synthesizer is activated. You can use speakupconf to load your settings
+if desired.

+for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input
+to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file
+format whose markup, or absence of markup, has been arranged to thwart
+or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent.
+An image format is not Transparent if used for any substantial amount
+of text. A copy that is not "Transparent" is called "Opaque".
+
+Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
+ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML
+or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple
+HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification. Examples of
+transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG. Opaque formats
+include proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by
+proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or
+processing tools are not generally available, and the
+machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word
+processors for output purposes only.
+
+The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
+plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material
+this License requires to appear in the title page. For works in
+formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title Page" means
+the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title,
+preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
+
+A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document whose
+title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following
+text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ stands for a
+specific section name mentioned below, such as "Acknowledgements",
+"Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".) To "Preserve the Title"
+of such a section when you modify the Document means that it remains a
+section "Entitled XYZ" according to this definition.
+
+The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which
+states that this License applies to the Document. These Warranty
+Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in this
+License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
+implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has
+no effect on the meaning of this License.
+
+
+2. VERBATIM COPYING
+
+You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
+commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
+copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies
+to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other
+conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use
+technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
+copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept
+compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough
+number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.
+
+You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
+you may publicly display copies.
+
+
+3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
+
+If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have
+printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the
+Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the
+copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover
+Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on
+the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify
+you as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present
+the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and
+visible. You may add other material on the covers in addition.
+Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve
+the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated
+as verbatim copying in other respects.
+
+If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
+legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
+reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
+pages.
+
+If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering
+more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent
+copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy
+a computer-network location from which the general network-using
+public has access to download using public-standard network protocols
+a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material.
+If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps,
+when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure
+that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
+location until at least one year after the last time you distribute an
+Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that
+edition to the public.
+
+It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the
+Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give
+them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document.
+
+
+4. MODIFICATIONS
+
+You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under
+the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release
+the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified
+Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution
+and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy
+of it. In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:
+
+A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct
+ from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions
+ (which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section
+ of the Document). You may use the same title as a previous version
+ if the original publisher of that version gives permission.
+B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities
+ responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified
+ Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the
+ Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five),
+ unless they release you from this requirement.
+C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
+ Modified Version, as the publisher.
+D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
+E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
+ adjacent to the other copyright notices.
+F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice
+ giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the
+ terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below.
+G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections
+ and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice.
+H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
+I. Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title, and add
+ to it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and
+ publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page. If
+ there is no section Entitled "History" in the Document, create one
+ stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as
+ given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified
+ Version as stated in the previous sentence.
+J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for
+ public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise
+ the network locations given in the Document for previous versions
+ it was based on. These may be placed in the "History" section.
+ You may omit a network location for a work that was published at
+ least four years before the Document itself, or if the original
+ publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.
+K. For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications",
+ Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the section all
+ the substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements
+ and/or dedications given therein.
+L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
+ unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers
+ or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
+M. Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements". Such a section
+ may not be included in the Modified Version.
+N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled "Endorsements"
+ or to conflict in title with any Invariant Section.
+O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.
+
+If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
+appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material
+copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all
+of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the
+list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice.
+These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.
+
+You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
+nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
+parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text has
+been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a
+standard.
+
+You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a
+passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list
+of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of
+Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
+through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already
+includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or
+by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of,
+you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit
+permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.
+
+The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License
+give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or
+imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
+
+
+5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
+
+You may combine the Document with other documents released under this
+License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified
+versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the
+Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and
+list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its
+license notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers.
+
+The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
+multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
+copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but
+different contents, make the title of each such section unique by
+adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original
+author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number.
+Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of
+Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.
+
+In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled "History"
+in the various original documents, forming one section Entitled
+"History"; likewise combine any sections Entitled "Acknowledgements",
+and any sections Entitled "Dedications". You must delete all sections
+Entitled "Endorsements".
+
+
+6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
+
+You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents
+released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this
+License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in
+the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for
+verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects.
+
+You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute
+it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this
+License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all
+other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.
+
+
+7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
+
+A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate
+and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or
+distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the copyright
+resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights
+of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit.
+When the Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not
+apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves
+derivative works of the Document.
+
+If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
+copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of
+the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on
+covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
+electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic form.
+Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket the whole
+aggregate.
+
+
+8. TRANSLATION
+
+Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
+distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4.
+Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
+permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
+translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
+original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
+translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
+Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also include
+the original English version of this License and the original versions
+of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a disagreement between
+the translation and the original version of this License or a notice
+or disclaimer, the original version will prevail.
+
+If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements",
+"Dedications", or "History", the requirement (section 4) to Preserve
+its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the actual
+title.
+
+
+9. TERMINATION
+
+You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except
+as expressly provided for under this License. Any other attempt to
+copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will
+automatically terminate your rights under this License. However,
+parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this
+License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
+parties remain in full compliance.
+
+
+10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
+
+The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions
+of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new
+versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
+differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See
+http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/.
+
+Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number.
+If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this
+License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of
+following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or
+of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the
+Free Software Foundation. If the Document does not specify a version
+number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not
+as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.
+
+
+ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
+
+To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
+the License in the document and put the following copyright and
+license notices just after the title page:
+
+ Copyright (c) YEAR YOUR NAME.
+ Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
+ under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2
+ or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
+ with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts.
+ A copy of the license is included in the section entitled "GNU
+ Free Documentation License".
+
+If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover Texts,
+replace the "with...Texts." line with this:
+
+ with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the
+ Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST.
+
+If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other
+combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the
+situation.
+
+If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
+recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of
+free software license, such as the GNU General Public License,
+to permit their use in free software.
+
+The End.
