Look in file emacspeak.el for 
how to set things up so your extension loads when the
     package being speech enabled loads.

Make sure your extension is organized in a separate file
called emacspeak-milon.el
--even if it only a couple of functions --if it is useful it
will grow  --so you might as well prepare for success.
