Well, such a program exists. It is an INIT/CDEV called Lip Service, and it is available on Sumex. While it can only deliver a voice as good as MacInTalk can, it does to <daypart> (ie evening), <weekday>, <day>, <month>, <year>, and <time>. All of these can be combined in any way with regular text to be said each time the system is started up. -- ******************************************************************************* * Bill Taroli (WWTAROLI@RODAN.acs.syr.edu) | "You can and must understand * * Syracuse University, Syracuse NY | computers NOW!" -- Ted Nelson * *******************************************************************************
