hi,
oh okay.
I am about to write you privately. One of the members on the surv pc as
in survivors list is in Spain. He has a good list of places from which
you can obtain the king of computer you desire with the ports that may
work best.
Thanks for the textaccess tip will see what I can find
Hi,
Yes, I've heard of the Reading Edge. I was aware of the fact that it used
DECtalk, but I didn't know it could act as an external synthesizer.
TextAssist doesn't require dosbox, it just needs a SoundBlaster. I meant that
the talking dosbox package included the synthesizer. You can probably get
Hi,
I do not use dosbox. my dos setup is strictly dos, so if the textaccess
thing requires dosbox it will not work.
My tie to dec is in a reading edge a stand alone scanner built by xerox
that also has the synthesizer option.
I have never required emulation as I expressed before.
I will ask
TextAssist is not too hard to find. You can get a pre-built dosbox with Win 3.1
and TextAssist somewhere in grossgang.com. He has a lot of old DOS access
software.
I'm in Spain, so that would probably be kind of a problem. :)
I'm guessing you're using an external DECtalk synthesizer (card/stand-a
I use dectalk every day smiles.
where are you located? Somewhere I have contact information for a person
stateside who can build the machine for you, port included.
Is it still possible to find textaccess anywhere?
might be a fun laptop option.

Oh okay.
I have no idea, it might I believe someone suggested asking on the
source list for it.
I have always gotten my machines custom built, one can still find those
with cereal ports. as I use dos exclusively It has been worth it to me to
keep the door open.
I did not know all those sound
I do, but none of the computers that I have have a serial port. I was hoping
that this would be an alternative but I guess not.

Understood,
May I ask what the problem is then? Do you not have an external
synthesizer?
I do not use freedos, but a later package of ms dos 7.1 I have no
issues, but I am not using a sound card.

I have heard about talking dosbox, in fact I helped with the project and I made
one of the speech synthesis helper applications, but I was hoping to be able to
have dos running natively without emulation. I have no sight whatsoever so I
need speech output, and the only ways of speech output avai
Hi Guillem,
granted I am unsure what your goals may be, but have you tried a
relatively new project talking dosbox?
http://batsupport.com/unsupported/dosbox/00_README.html
I can tell you nothing about it save that it is supposed to allow for
speech via dosbox using the sound card etc.
ho
I got it to work through DOSBOX in Linux Xubuntu, but not in FreeDOS on an
Acer Laptop. It was cool to hear sound in Xargon and PakuPaku.
Will try to run it today on a HP/Compaq DC5700 desktop after I switch my
audio cables.

Hi.
Yeah, only reason I asked is because right now my only way of running DOS is
actually through dosbox, which would make testing it kind of impossible. Before
I dualboot my PC I want to be sure I'll be able to use it. If I don't have
speech synthesis I can't use the computer. I would run the s

Just for clarification, does this only work with programs loaded inside dosbox
inside HX, or is there any way to get it to work under DOS directly, with HX
loaded but without DOSbox? I'm still thinking of dualbooting one of my machines
with DOS but I need some way of doing either USB serial port
