Guy:

After you have changed the voice as you described, does the voice then
announce itself with the new name?

Sincerely:

Dave Durber

> Typically, to change the name of a file or folder, highlight it in a list
and press F2, which sets up an edit field. However, even if that were
possible in this case (I don't know either way because I haven't bothered
downloading RealSpeak voices), it would probably be unwise to make such a
change with these voices. It could disrupt the programming syntax, if that's
the right lingo.
