Hi Jayson,

That's some really interesting work. How was it possible to get it that
close to the old versions?

I tried running various text files through the build you send out, and so
fare, I have found a little error / difference between this and the old
versions, before Fonix. When you write a "period" after a "right square
bracket", which ended some phonemes, DECtalk 4.3 will just make the normal
pause as at the end of a sentence, while this build, a long with Fonix
versions sutch as 4.64, pronowns the sign "period", and then pauses.
Otherwise, as you wrote, some exclaims and ends of sentences sound a little
"flat", but otherwise I think it sounds really good.

Kind regards:
Aksel Christoffersen
