Re: [orca-list] espeak-ng and capitalization?

[Ted <orangegrovebear gmail com>]

This seems like something deliberate, though, and not a bug. I haven't 
been able to make much sense of how to change things in espeak or 
espeak-ng, like editing a language. Surely there would be a way to 
change it. There's nothing in the speech dispatcher espeak-ng module's 
config file.
