That is a huge project. You may want to start with a Linux kernel and go from there. As I understand it, you have a kernel which has certain functions you can use, like printing text to the screen, getting keyboard input (or input from a file), runningcalculations, and so on. You use c (a language) to get access to these functions, and build from there. In this way you could get a basic kernel (in linux this gives you a command line interface) with speech, but of course you cannot just make a kernel talk with a "speak()" function, you have to build the entire speaking system, or use one that someone has already written. I want to do something similar, but probably will not, at least not for a while.
Have a great day, Alex

Hello; Listers, I just thought. What do I have to do to create a operating system with speech. I just thought about this. Can this be done? Please write back. From Jose Lomeli. __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind
