So is version 4.40 gone forever? Why does it have to be 4.64? 4.40 SAPI 5 would be paradise.

well, no -- i worked on DECtalk for a couple of companies, but as an
employee I never owned any code. DECtalk was sold from company to
company. employees of companies are bound by work agreements to NOT
keep any code.
recently Enable Rehab, my own company, bought the right to distribute
one version of DECtalk, 4.6.4, from the current DECtalk owner, Fonix.
my goal (Enable's goal) is to make a SAPI version of DECtalk available
to persons who need it. i'll let users know the size of files needed
and any other details once i'm sure the code works on my own laptop.
that's the stage we're at now.
pls do keep questions coming as i want to know what users need to
know, like file size - great question! i'll do my best to find answers
to any questions. others on this email listserv may know answers that
i don't. just keep asking!
