Well, when added the following lines of script to my one bit of scripting as
a test:
Delay (20, True)
if SpeechInUse () == True Then
SayString ("was in use")
Else
SayString ("was not in use")
EndIf
It said to me that speech was not in use since I just waited the 2 seconds,
so it does seem to be looking to see if the synth is busy talking.
Stay well
