I have been working with gnopernicus with festival on a debian system and have had next to no luck getting it to do anything useful. I can get the thing to talk, but the documentation (if you can call it that) leaves much to be desired. Perhapse we should pool our resources and hire them a bilingual person for documentation, but anyhow, what tasks have you been able to perform with gnopernicus, and what resource have you been using to figure it out? Thank you for any help you can provide. I apologise for sounding off about things, but I have been seeing vaporware for gnopernicus and the *wonderful* world of xwindows since last summer and I have yet to really access anything with it. -- Unix is a user friendly operating system. It just picks its friends more carefully than others. Thomas Stivers e-mail: stivers_t at tomass.dyndns.org gpg: 45CBBABD
