Please, Jessica, don't write your own screen reader.
I say this as the maintainer of a distribution that gives the choice between
espeakup, speechd-up ans fenrir out of the box (unfortunately only for x86_64,
sorry).
We don't need a fourth console screen reader, me think.
If you don't like fenrir, why not report the issues you have with it upstream?
Even better, why not use your skills and time to help enhance it?
I am pretty sure that this help would be appreciated by Chrys and Storm, who
both just lack the time need to work on several projects in parallel as fast as
they would like to.
As an aside, blacklisting a sound card should not be necessary, there are means
to set the one to be used by a given application.
Best regards,
Didier

Hello scott. Nope. Using internal and running the hdmi from the hdmi port to===========================================================
my tv. Works really well. Both emacspeak and espeakup work great minus the
slight lag on silencing speech at times.
I really don't have the extra cash for an external sound card right now. But
I am guessing you would get one that connects to the USB port.
And then you would probably have to blacklist the default sound card driver
so it won't load.
I am not a huge fan of fenrir anyway. So its totally ok.
In fact, I have been considering down the road writing my own screen reader.
Good luck right?
Just thinking aloud anyway.
And yay. It looks like the reply problem is now solved. Way awesome!
