[DECtalk] DECTALK 4.0 OR EARLIER

[Jayson Smith]

Hello,
As for making a user dictionary, I have no idea.  Aparently the format of the user dictionary has changed since the old PC card Dectalks using version 4.2 of the software.  Included with that software was a user dictionary compiler.  I tried using the "Load User Dictionary" menu option in the 4.3 demo to load a dictionary I'd made years ago and nothing changed.
Just curious, if you actually buy DECtalk software, what is included?  I assume you get a DLL or something to link to your applications.  Do you also get a Speak program like the demo program?
Jayson.

  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?
