fokSyf version 1.0.0pre3 release.
Please uninstall the old version before installing this,
and then run foksy setup and reboot as usual.
[Remember the space between foksy and setup].
Please read installREADME.txt in detail before installing.
I had the option of selecting screen font size in the back of my mind,
for those running foksy under X. Thanks to murga forum member Keef,
for some pointers to relevant howto documents on the web,
I have now added a major section to foksy to handle that.
Actually, I did a bit more than I intended,
in that I have tried to make foksy take into account the user's underlying
screen resolution, by means of a user supplied commandline argument.
What happens, if you select options x b n or x w n (where n is a specific suggested integer), is that a new, scaled,
rxvt console will open up.
You need to then enter foksy again,
to start up the menu system in that new console.
Should you want to finish, in that console,
you should enter the command exit (or press the close window X symbol).
Best way to understand how it works, is to play with it for a while...
CHANGES
version 1.0.0pre2
Added a foksy --kill option to clean up the speech system,
in case you lose it and want to restart with ifoksy.
Added menu item x b n and x w n for changing x term font sizes.
Of course, this option only applies to those using an X console.
Note that the x term font size and auto console window size changes
is a bit experimental in that it hasn't been well-tested yet.
I could have made the windows a bit bigger,
but I've erred on the side of caution (better too small than too big)
since I only have a 1024x768 monitor to try it on.
[You can always right click and maximise the rxvt console window if you wish]
If you are technically inclined you can fine tune the x term window sizes
by editing the file /usr/local/foksy/foksyopts.
If you break that, don't worry, there is a back up called foksyoptsBACKUP
in the same directory.
You can enter foksy as usual
(in which case a default screen width of 1024 is assumed,
or you can supply a screen width commandline option, such as:
foksy 800, or foksy 1280, and so on. It should word either way,
but will scale any rxvt console window better,
if you supply foksy with your screen width.
Of course the menu options x b n and x w n are only useful if you are
running foksy in an X console. However, foksy can be run outside of X,
as usual.
For a list of all the possible options to foksy,
you can enter: foksy --help
If the underlying speech system ever gets lost,
you should be able to restore it by entering:
foksy --kill
followed by
ifoksy
