I thought they were each their own thing. It’s amazing the old screen readers supported 7 or 8 different versions of dectalk! Even humanware sold decTalk along with their keynote products, and decTalk worked with Humanware’s keysoft application suite. And window-bridge let you use text-assist in ms-dos, and text-assist was just decTalk in a sound blaster card. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
