Chris, did you ever get your answer about speech synth problems?
I'll just say this about it. Synthesizers are somewhat like people in
that the vary widely. Not only that, but the amount of flexibility
with which they can change things also varies. For instance, with my
Eureka, I can't get that fool machine to not say * if my life depended
on it. However, I'm using Jaws with my clone, and when they tell you
that you can turn all punctuation off, they mean it.
Hope this helps.
Oh, one more thing. if the graphics you mentioned are ansi, only the
clones can be silenced while they go by. However, don't let that
bother you, picture on, just don't overdo it please.
Bill.

is it possible to train a speech synthesizer to recognize shorthand for
terms? Are there speech synthesizer "macros". Is it oossible to train a
speech synthesizer to learn that (V) means a hug for someone whose name
starts with V? And that ((V)) means two hugs?
