Hi,
I made this change a little while ago, but I havn't released it yet, though you can get it from subversion.

Subject: [nvda] via voice driver suggestion



Hello,
Another problem I had when trying to start nvda was that viavoice
could not be loaded. I tooke a look in the synthdrivers/viavoice.py
and on line 34 and saw that the viavoicePath variable has a hardcoded
value. As my computer uses "arquivos de programas" instead of "program
files" (windows in portuguese) I thought that we could make nvda look
for paths of needed dlls etc in the registry, this way it would run
mostly in all computers.
The viavoice path is contained in the key
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\IBM\ViaVoice TTS", in a value called
"Path". I would code it myself but right now I don't know python
enough to do it, but as it is relatively simple to do and it would
make the binary version of nvda run ok in almost every non english
system someone could include it in the next revision.
Thanks
Marlon
