Many thanks both,  appreciate the level of instructions and the scope I 
have.  I'll be very busy later when I have reorganised all the spaghetti and 
got both real machines on one desk and fire them all up to check they still 
do things.

Many thanks, robH, again.

Subject: Re: Voices on Mac?


Hello Bob,

Go to VoiceOver Utility (VO-F8) and press Cmd-3 to go to Speech. Navigate 
right to the default voice which is a menu button. Press VO-space and go 
down to Customize. Press Return and navigate right to the table of voices. 
There is a vast selection of voices in English, along with lots of voices in 
many other languages.

I've been using a Mac for 18 years and am very attached to the Fred voice, 
but I do use Fiona, the Scottish voice as my system voice.

Cheers,

Anne
