In-Reply-To: message from alb@cognos.UUCP Once I saw the synthetic speech tools... If I'm not mistaken, there were two, one for male voice and one for female. I believe they were TOOL 050 and TOOL 051... They were with some shareware/PD game called "Bouncing Bluster". I could never get the game to go past the title screen (I have a ROM 03, maybe that's why?), but I could select the Quit option. I remember it saying (in a rough synthetic voice) "GOOD-BYE". I tried making some toolbox calls with this utility CDA, but I'm not a programmer, so I couldn't get it to do anything else. Try looking at the toolset listing in UtilityWorks GS, if you have that program. Has anyone else seen this "Bouncing Bluster" thing work? --------------------------------------------- ProLine: ryanb@pro-charlotte Internet: ryanb@pro-charlotte.cts.com UUCP: crash!pro-charlotte!ryanb ARPA: crash!pro-charlotte!ryanb@nosc.mil --------------------------------------------- Charlotte, North Carolina ---------------------------------------------

I could never get the game to go past the title screen These sound like the tools that are (were?) available through TML Systems (now Complete Technologies Inc), which are based on First Byte stuff. The tool sets are *not* in the public domain (if they came with a particular commercial software product, they were probably licensed for use with that product; as I recall First Byte had some pretty stiff licensing terms, but you should contact them directly for definitive information...don't rely on my memory!). -- David A.
