- I don't know if this is available from a shareware or freeware source. One
- place it is definitely available is from Baseline in their "Talking Moose"
- product. No matter what you think of the moose (I rather like him, myself),
- if you want Macintalk, it is worth getting this package. The Macintalk that
- they include is indeed System 7 compatible, and I've tried it with various
- programs that use Macintalk (i.e. MacTrek) and it works great. I am using
- it with System 7.1 on a IIcx. I don't use virtual memory or 32-bit
- addressing, so I don't know if it works in those circumstances.
-
- If you can't find Talking Moose locally, you can certainly get it from
- Mac[Connection,Warehouse] and probably other such dealers.
-
- Hope this helps,
