We are of course getting ISOS and the Prodigy interfacr program.  ISOS is a
full-featured screen review that has been around since the mid 1980's.  It
supports a full range of speech synthesizers including but not limited to DEC-
Talk, SynPhonix, Votrax, DoubleTalk, Accent etc.  As I understand it, there is
an intermediate program that helps with Prodigy, so don't know about other
graphical interfaces.  May be possible, but who knows.
Will keep you posted.
