Index Number: 15536 These forum questions were provided by: Peter Bosher 9 Rue Mansart Paris, France 75009 Firstly I'd like to say how impressed I was by the last 'magazine'. It was packed with interesting and useful material. I have two questions for the forum. Here are the questions: (1) The reading programs supplied by CBFB, such as List and Ralph The Reader, are excellent for ease of use and rapid access, but when reading long files continuously, it is frustrating to have to wait, with finger poised over the page-down key to get the next screenful. I have just acquired a program which solves this problem by feeding the screen at a slow enough rate to allow a speech program to read continuously. If anyone would like a copy I'd be glad to pass it on, but it doesn't have the same advantages as List for ease of navigating within and between files. Does anyone know of a program combining the best of both worlds? (2) Does anyone regularly use a reasonably powerful and efficient Midi package that is speech-friendly? If so, what? I write from France where everyone uses Attari or Mac.
