Snoopy,
I don't know about versions of dectalk before 3.0, but I use dectalk 4.3,
which in my opinion sounds less breathy than dectalk 4.4, a little more like
the hardware version. It's available at:
http://onj.andrelouis.com/Dectalk/dectalk4.3.zip
Dectalk 4.4 was available on the web at some stage, from a Canadian
division of some blindness technology company. The copy on that website did
not have the ability to convert text to wave files, and sounded quite
breathy.
I don't know about loading a user dictionary into the dectalk window, but
I wonder if any pronunciation entries could somehow be added to dectalk.dic?
Regards,
Graham Pearce

Subject: [DECtalk] DECTALK 4.0 OR EARLIER
Does anyone have an old copy of the Dectalk speak window? I have version
4.40 but wish I had an earlier version. I work for Fonix and Gallaudet
University. When Dectalk was bought from Dec, the older versions simply
disappeared. I'm the only one that has version 4.40. Mine is
Bug free and I love it. But I know version 3.0 was closer yet to the
hardware version. We all want to get our hands on an older version.
Also, can anyone tell me how to create a user dictionary for the Dectalk
speak window? I'm releasing a CD on March 18th with over 1000 songs files
for Dectalk. I badly want to add some pronunciations to the dictionary
before the release. Can anyone tell me how to do this?
