From TALK.EXE you can start this program from the timer and setting dialogs, if it resides in the same
directory.
the files adict.db and sayrc are optional;
sayrc for experimenting with synth parameters, see sayrc.doc
adict.dbdictionary with words (English) gives great improvement on speech quality (not included (9 Mb) get TALK.ZIP)
put these files in the same directory or in a directory pointed to with the TALK environment variable in
CONFIG.SYS
SET TALK=C:\MMOS2\TALK
You can also put the appointments file in this directory (TALK.APP)
