[DECtalk] a great idea for a website

Tyler,
The version of Dectalk you downloaded there is probably version 4.4, which
sounds a lot like 4.3. Convert to Wave is unavailable in the 4.4 speak
window; that's just the way it is.
As per the topic of this thread about a Dectalk 4.3 web site, I agree with
other members who are not interested in such a site. I think using DT speak
window on an individual's computer is sufficient. Trying to set up a web
site for an online DT 4.3 speak window might be a waste of time/money.
Blake

Yeah, I downloaded a copy of Dectalk from www.theflameofhope.co (yes, I said
.co) and the export to wav is greyed out (unavailable).
