Description

As reported by Joanmarie: “set_cap_let_recogn() lets one choose amongst:

  • none
  • spell
  • icon

Orca has always provided this via pitch. I've implemented support in Orca for the above and would love to see pitch being something I could set via the same API rather than it being entirely separate.

Please and thank you. :)”

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore the set cap let recogn() function in the speechd source code to understand the current implementation of capitalization presentation options (none, spell, icon) and then extend it to include a pitch option, referencing how Orca implements pitch for capitalization.
