Ok, think my original email got lost in a bit of downtime for freelists, so 
will resend it now.

Anyway, was trying to make use of either the 
System.Speech.Synthesis.SpeechSynthesizer class string - that one works in 
.Net, or Say.Tools for SayTools to get python windows apps to talk to me, but 
although they sort of work in .Net, I can't run regsvr32 on any one of the 3 
versions of the System.Speech.dll files on this machine, or on SayTools.dll, 
and python's own pytts namespace isn't valid on this version of python - 2.7 - 
so, what have done thus far is implement a command line call of SayTools 
SayLine.exe to get python to talk to me during whatever else it's busy with, 
and that works alright, but would also just be nice if you could at least try 
implement an instance of a com component using it's file location/filename, but 
doesn't seem doable or something.

Stay well
