THIS PROGRAM LOOKS INTERESTING, BUT I BELIEVE

        that it will fall flat on its face because every time you want to run
a new application, you need to call the company for an upgrade. It may
work great for those things it works for, but if you can innumerate the
list of things it does work for, then you probably can't innumerate the
list of things it doesn't work for.

PROTALK FOR WINDOWS, Multimedia speech output from MS-WINDOWS 3.1

PROTALK FOR WINDOWS takes an entirely different approach to
speech access to MS-WINDOWS 3.1. Because it is a true WINDOWS
program it is not necessary to buy an expensive dedicated speech
synthesizer. Any multimedia sound board works great (Of course,
if you already have a synthesizer, we do support the most popular
ones).

Protalk for Windows provides access to:

MS-WINDOWS 3.1 Calculator, Calendar, Notepad, Card File, Write,
Media Player, Word, WordPerfect, Excel, Visual Basic, Turbo
Pascal. Access to other popular programs will be provided on an
ongoing basis. Protalk for Windows allows ready access to all
screen facets. Our exclusive Item Manager eliminates the need for
mouse movement and provides concise information on all icons,
menus and sub menus. You receive accurate feedback and
confirmation when you need it! Buttons tell you if they are
checked or unchecked, Dialogue boxes make sense! Free Form,
another exclusive feature allows mouse emulation without the
difficulties that mouse movement presents to a visually impaired
computer user. Any DOS application can also be accessed via the
DOS Prompt within windows.

With Protalk for Windows you can customize speech rate, volume
and tone control, unit of movement size, etc., all within a
friendly, intuitive command structure. Protalk for Windows
provides every feature that you will need.

Finally, true Windows access for the Visually Impaired!
