-- i worked on DECtalk for a couple of companies, but as an<br>employee I
never owned any code. DECtalk was sold from company to<br>company. employees
of companies are bound by work agreements to NOT<br>keep any
code.<br><br>recently Enable Rehab, my own company, bought the right to
distribute<br>one version of DECtalk, 4.6.4, from the current DECtalk owner,
Fonix.<br>my goal (Enable's goal) is to make a SAPI version of DECtalk
available<br>to persons who need it. i'll let users know the size of files
needed<br>and any other details once i'm sure the code works on my own
laptop.<br>that's the stage we're at now.<br><br>pls do keep questions coming
as i want to know what users need to<br>know, like file size - great question!
i'll do my best to find answers<br>to any questions. others on this email
listserv may know answers that<br>i don't. just keep asking!<br><br><br>On
