Very nice. Why didn't I think of that? Many thanks Gene.

Thanks...now what about Windows? What's the best voice selection for
Windows? Anyone? I know the external can make Rev speak, but what is the
advice on implementing it? i.e., would it be better practice to call
different handlers (Mac vs. PC/Windows) to speak, or change the whole
concept in the stack operations foe Windows, because having to use the
external?

Best regards,
Ken N.
