- I believe that SmoothTalker is now being licensed/distributed by ByteWorks,
- and it's called _Talking_Tools_. The list price is $60.
-
- Speaking of ByteWorks, can someone please tell me if these are the current
- version of Orca:
-
- I have Orca Shell 1.2.2,
- Orca C/disk version 1.3.1,
- Release date: 1 Nov. 1991, and finally,
- Prizm 1.1.4,
-
- I would like to know if these are the most current versions, because I
- would like to get GNO/ME soon, and having the latest version would
- probably avoid many headaches and incompatibilties.
-
- Thanks in advance.
