I have been trying to get speak to read a capture file from VT100.  It sorta
works, by capturing to the file speak:.  However, the buffer is so large that
speak doesn't get around to speaking the text until it's up off the page.

Question:  I would like the buffer to be small.  ~100 bytes, or so.  I know
it wouldn't be useful generally, but at 300 baud (WarGames speed) a file
capture/simultaneos speak would look really neat.  Any ideas?

thanks,
