here goes:
i am visually impared, and have a dectalk pc speech synthasizer.
it emulated both a serial and a paralel port.
i can access it using echo to com2 (i set it up to use com2 instead of
com4 for compat.)
i can also access it with bios2 under ms-kermit.
if i access it with echo, or with any other thing
(quickbasic, etc) the responces don't come in.
i don't know why, but it's just that way, but it works with kermit's
bios2,
meaning, i receive the responces on the screen that come through the
dectalk.
i know this since i used a log file and captured them.
my asic question is:
i have a linux box on com1,
and i would like to use emacspeak with its full capabilities,
emulating (as far as possible)
a normal dectalk express on my 386 (dectalk box).
is there a way i can have:
input from com1 go to com2,
output from com2 go to com1
and so on?
e.g.:
if i sent "a" to com1's input, that a would end up at com2.
whatever com2 said back (phonemes, etc) would be sent out com1.
and the process would repeat, character-by-character, over and over
again.
can ms-kermit help with this? can it be done?
