[DECtalk] I found multilingual truvoice

[Carlos Fernandez]

     I'm also a native speaker. I'll admit that the pronunciation is not 
that bad, but the sound quality really irritates me. Of the ten voices, 
maybe three are OK, and even they are annoyingly rough and 
oddly-pitched. I'm sure that, when compared to the other options of the 
era, they probably sounded quite good, but I don't think they've really 
survived the test of better hardware and software.
     To Blake, yes, the voices for English are the ones in the 
English-only package.
     To Jake, I am planning to upload this to the archive, as it's an 
interesting and relevant package. Is there something I should keep in 
mind while doing so? Thanks for finding it, by the way.
