Can Espeakedit be downloaded from the espeak web site?

You can use an exceptions dictionary now, but not as conveniently as it
could be.

1.  Install the espeakedit program.

2.  Make a file:
    C:\Program Files\eSpeak\dictsource\en-extra

    where "en" is the language code.

3.  Add the words and their phonetic translation to the en-extra file.
    eg.
      andrew     andru:
      ireland    aI@l@nd

    The phoneme codes for English are described in docs/phonemes.html
    (or http://espeak.sf.net/phonemes.html)

4.  From the espeakedit menu bar do:
     Speak->Voice->en
     Data->Compile_dictionary

    This recompiles the en_rules, en_list, and en_extra files to produce
    a new espeak-data/en_dict  file.

How should I improve this?
