It is possible this might not be due to changes in emacspeak, but perhaps something odd with evil mode. I added a basic debug statement to the advice for evil-backward-char which displays the values for point, the arguments of evil-backward-char and the char returned for char-after. What is interesting is that it appears the function is being called with different parameters multiple times when moving by just one character. Note that I have changed the advice from before to after advice (reason outlined below). So the output I get after moving backwards by one character is e-b-c point = 4265 count = 2 crosslines = t noerror = nil char = 97 e-b-c point = 4265 count = 2 crosslines = t noerror = t char = 97 e-b-c point = 4266 count = nil crosslines = t noerror = nil char = 114 e-b-c point = 4266 count = nil crosslines = nil noerror = nil char = 114 It looks like evil-backward-char is called 4 times, twice with count set to 2 and twice with count set to nil. When count is set to 2, one call has noerror set to nil and one has it set to t. When count is nil, one call has crosslines set to t and one has it set to nil. With this information, I think I can make it work. However, it is a real kludge and I really don't understand what is going on. I did try a macroexpand on the evil-define-motion macro which is used to define evil-backward-char and evil-forward-char, but that didn't help a lot - it is a little complex as that macro then calls the macro evil-define-command. I do wonder if it might be worth asking on the evil project as this could simply be an issue with the macros which hasn't been picked up under standard use. The reason I changed the advice to after advice rather than before advice is that it struck me that you really want to speak the character after the move. In the original advice, 1 is added or remove from the current value of point to (I guess) simulate the movement. However, with evil mode, you can do things like 3h to move backwards 3 characters. With the original advice, this didn't work correctly as it would only speak the character before point. Understand your busy trying to get the next release out. I will play wiht things a bit more and see what I can discover. I don't tend to move around by character that much, so the multiple echo is only mildly annoying and I suspect I can fudge it temporarily anyway.
