Comment 1 Francois Aucamp 2008-12-02 10:45:36 UTC
I am unable to reproduce this bug; using the following input works fine for me, everytime:

$ espeak -f file.txt --punct="" -v eng

as well as

$ espeak -f file.txt --punct="" -v af

...etc

I will discuss this further on the original bug report (#467763).
