[nvda] Re: ESpeak update in Nvda?

One interesting thing I noticed, as probably the worst typist i know, is that if i accidentally type an extra cap in a three letter word, it says the letters, but if all three are caps it reads the word.

I DID put it on the sideboard
I DId put it on the sideboard.

Thanks for helping me find my typos!!!

Oh, I'll have to check on this. I'm just trying to think if what you say is true. I realised it did this if reading some program listings where keywords of three letters were in caps, but it not always in that sort of environment that it occurs.

It still has this strange way of randomly saying a three letter word

is.

This is when eSpeak finds a 2 or 3 letter word is written in capitals,
in a sentence where other words are in lower-case.  That usually means
that it's a TLA (three letter acronym).

Of course, it may have been capitalized for emphasis, in which case
spelling as letters is not appropriate.
