Jim,

I don't know what SAP stands for, and I don't know under what conditions you 
mean I might need it.  Is it a software speech synth packaged with Win XP, 
meant to be used with a program like Jaws as an alternative to Eloquence? 
Could I switch to it right now to read the next messages from this list? 
Or, if not, what is it and what's it actually for?

Thanks,
Daniel

Hi, if you need sapi 5 you can go to the jaws control panel.  Now select
langwige.  Now select change synthesizer.  You will see sapi 5 in the =
list

I could use some instruction about this.  I'm accustomed to thinking =
that=20
Eloquence simply was the synth that Jaws used out of the box.  What is =
this=20
other synth you're talking about, how does one switch to it, and why =
would=20
you choose it?  In an emergency where Eloquence failed?  Or because it's =
a=20
full-featured synth whose sound you might prefer to that of Eloquence?

thanks,
Daniel

A particular easter egg has been discovered, probably with in the =3D =
last=3D3D
couple of days which affects eloquence users in jaws and in open =

where if the word caesure is read by eloquence, the speech disappears. =

way one can get around this, however is to switch to another synth, =3D =

find that word and change the way it is said in the jaws dictionary. =3D =
I've
not tried doing the dictionary bit yet, but apparently, that is one=3D3D =
