Greetings Netland. Does anyone out there have a PD porgram that responds intelligently to conversation spoken (typed) to it? I am developing a bartender in an online game who needs to appear to be somewhat philosophical. Several years ago, the Elisa program from, I believe, MIT was popular (did I just date myself?) Is there an 80's or even 70's evolution of such a program around? Please email or post any such routines. Many thanks, Eric ericc@tekgen.BV.TEK.COM

You can find a "BASIC" version of the program in the book "more Basic
Computer Games" from Workman Publishing, New York. I can't vouch for
how good it is, since I had to hand type it in, and have not found
time to debug my typos. In other words what I typed works but not
well. It would give you the right direction to go in, but you would
have to translate the program into whatever language you wished to use.

You can get a copy of ELIZA II from the following company.It sells for 19.95US .. I haven't used it and I have no experience with this company other than a copy of their catalog... good luck.. ....sans Dynacomp, inc. 178 Phillips road Webster , NY 14580 (716) 265 4040 (800) 828 6772 24hr order phone (outside NY) -- < sans => mcmiller@uokmax.UUCP or mcmiller@uokmax.ecn.uoknor.edu > < Abe said 'where you want this killin' done ?' > < God said ' out on highway 61 ' >

I have since read about the Eliza programs.... I did not know that it was part of GNU-EMACS but that will be neat to play with. I do know that there are MANY programs out that will 'talk' with you. For example, I have seen eliza for the apple and the atari 8bit. I also have that book 'More Basic Computer Games' and I think the word BASIC in the title has a double meaning-- those only two good games in the book are 'hunt the wumpus' and 'eliza' With that book you can translate eliza for an machine that uses microsoft basic (ie: you have have an array of strings- a$(1) and a$(2) are different.... this is NOT how is was in the old atari basic-- but there is a simple 3 byte fix for this...) Anyway, what you do next is get the simple speech program for your computer (right now, mine is speech.tos for the ST) but there is also SAM for the apples and the atari 8bit. You can modify the eliza program (change 2 lines) and then program will then REALLY talk back to you!!! have fun! ps: Yes, I have both the basic eliza and the TRUE talking eliza versions for the atari 8bit.... No, I don't know where it is since I let someone borrow all my 8bit disks and I have not received them back, yet! Scott D. Yelich scott@cs.odu.edu [128.82.8.1]

Other than modifying it for the particular flavor of BASIC, it worked just fine. After a bit of work, I was able to add new kewords and simularly preterb the program. If my memory serves, it wouldn't be hard to move it to C. Paul J. Mech mech@ace.cs.OHIOU.EDU

as far as i know 'racter' is the most advanced prgm one can converse with.
however it's not a psychiatrist sort of prgm. unfortunately i never was able
to buy.
