DOS ruled the world! Nice it shows how powerful command line is and how it is accessable to many more people. Your batch type files are exactly what I was thinking - but instead of numbers - why not simple words? Have the synthesizer say when at the command line: Type mail to read or write email, ty...

I can see now that a consistant system that can be used from program to program has to be used. The M$ Windows keys would be a logical starting place. TAB to go to up and down on the menu (SHIFT+TAB goes up). CTRL+P print. Also a way to go word and letter by letter is needed for word processing. CTR...

It might be better to build a new Puppy from 2.14 or 2.17. I'll burn a CD of the iso you mention soon and try it. I'm not a programmer either - I do other stuff. I just saw the need and saw where it could be made with Puppy and made into a very lightweight distro with a speaking command line. That's...

Keef, What a pleasure for your first post going to this topic. It is a great honor. The menu system that I've been speaking about was part of the link that Lobster gave us. Here is the link for the page that shows the menu system. http://www.ipsis.hr/gls/demo/TLB_Demonstration.htm A developer (that ...

Hi Raffy, I mentioned the ORCA screen reader above - it is really good - but it is very complicated to use. The easiest desktop to navigate is the "SPEAKEASY" desktop. The EMACSPEAK desktop is the most capable - but the commands are very very very complicated. See my post above that mentio...

Orca is the best of the bunch. It has synthesizers for English, German, Russian, Spanish - and more that I don't remember. It should be simplified.One of the pages Lobster gave has a screen shot that you can either TAB down or cursor up/down. Here is the link: http://www.ipsis.hr/gls/demo/TLB_Demons...

Lobster Thermometer on toast points, John you got me to a great page with links - and they have an alpha version with an iso that's still there. http://tuxmobil.org/mobile_blind.html Scroll down and you'll see the list of links. Most of the distros have a cryptic message "Development Stopped!&q...

Hello Eric - and others, I'm using 3.01 right now. It would be amazing if someone could do the command line puppy with speech - that would mean that even a 486 with small ram could get on internet, read mail using a text or even telnet etc. If your blackness blind, you don't need an X server. Thanks...

Sorry Andy,

I didn't see your message before.

Twonkey Music Server works wonderfully.

I've attached the file - you have to compile it -:)

Due to loosing sight, I've been interested in incorporating Emacs, Emacspeak, Festival (voice engine and voices) into Puppy. I don't know that this needs X, but it works with it. I've gotten Emacs and Emacspeak to work, and I've downloaded the Festival.pup - but there is an additional driver needed ...

MU would you change the link for the undeb unrpm in the Puppy Software Installer? Also there should be some way to add servers to the PSI list as many of the "good" files are on dead servers. The undeb worked and installed without a md5 checksum error - but now files are still calling for ...

The same md5 sum error message has been hapenning with the dot pup of mindnight commander also - and other files. Thanks for the fix.

Don't put the NIV or any "modern" trasnslation in. <snip> There is absolutely nothing wrong or hard to understand about the KJV it fairly acurate and was translated by people who actually cared. If you don't understand the bible don't go changing the Word of God around till it makes sence...

Bonjour encore Ceci est une meilleure version fonctionnante de mplayer et aussi des codecs pour les wma, ram, ogg, wmv, etc. http://revolutionnetwork.dyndns.org:8080/PuppyLinux/DotPups/MultiMedia/ Microsoft et d'autres gardent leur secret de codecs, ainsi cela enlève un moment à la figure comment fa...

Bonjour mon ami. Je ne suis pas au courant de << france2 >> mais je suis au courant de mplayer. J'emploie le mplayer avec le « navigateur d'opéra ». Vous devez télécharger les codecs pour mplayer. pour que ceci travaille jaillissez. Il y a un dotpup spécial pour le mplayer mais il est sur www.dotpup...

Gmediaserver, slimserver and others can work with puppy but they're only available as source. There is also MP3 streamer which will stream any format (WMA, RealPlayer, etc.) to mp3 format - perfect for people who have older portible music systems which can only play mp3 and not the newer types of au...

Is there some way that I can merge the 108gameCD2 files (especially the NVIDIA drivers) with the latest Puppy? I've tried upgrading the NVIDIA drivers from their web site, but I get an error message about the file wanting to install in root and that the Puppy installer doesn't allow that. I wish the...
