Stu,
I think what Eric is saying is, the TINY in TINYtALK doesn't stand for
nothing!
     If for no other reason, I think this is one of the reasons the
speech producers had better look at ram consumption figures with their
updates...multitasking is definately something many of us synthesizer
users want to get our hands on!  Other than for Eric's TINYtALK, Flipper
and Vocal-Eyes, I think the size of all the other speech programs would
hamper this effort significantly!

     Don't forget Provox, and, btw, Artic Vision and Flipper are very close
in size.

Gary,
     Are we back to this again!!!
     Yes, I am sorry about forgetting Provox, but again, Flipper and
Vocal-Eyes are very close in size on my system, both leaving me with
slightly over 500k on my desktop with a CHKDSK and with my fossil and
other tsr's resident, and the .EXE file of ARTIC that I've seen would
have to occupy less space in memory than on disk to accomplish this!
     Ok, ok, I give up!  Perhaps an older version of Artic would also
qualify as a memory saver!
                                                        Willie
