I am not a *horrible* programmer, but I am stuck.
I am trying to write a simple piece of code that takes
Arpabet (phonetic) input and feeds it to the narrator
device in a sane way. I can open the narrator device,
but any attempt to assign data to the required data
structures precipitates a 8000000A.something guru, or
sometimes just a freeze-up.
I have the source to speechtoy, but it is written all
wrong for the system I'm using (see below), and is too
involved for me to steal the portion of the source I
want.
I also have the book "Inside the Amiga" but its examples
don't seem to work -- they crash. *I just want to see the
narrator portion*; all the other stuff is confusing me.
I'm working on a 512K Amiga under 1.2 with Manx 3.40a,
patched with the version 1.3 patch program.
Thanks very much for any help you can provide.
