Hi Jane, Ok, I've tried this on my mud. I am probably not understanding the process completely, but I set the system speech to a different voice than I use with VO. Now, the session menu has a speech item, and there is a speak and speak in background option. I've tried both, but only get speech the first few times I type. I don't get any sort of feedback at all, and it doesn't seem to read properly if I try to review the text window.
Again, I might not have a setting right, so if you have any tips. Please let me know. It does look promising. Take Care John D.

You have to have the system voice set differently from the voiceOver Voice, and you can't check speech till after you log in, I mean that's how I do it. And I can't read boards, but I can talk to people. I don't know about muds yet. I'll have to try it later. What's relaly cool is that while I am typing this email, I am able to listen to what is going on in the mu* client window. I am on furrymuck furry.com 8888 and am Juanita, if anyone is curious. Jane
