Monologue for Windows from First Byte

Platform: Windows
Description: Monologue is a software program that reads text from the clipboard in Windows 16 or 32 bit applications. It can be found as a bundled product with many sound cards and multimedia general purpose computer systems. Monologue can add the element of speech to virtually any text oriented application. Any pronounceable combination of letters and numbers will be spoken clearly. It can be applied to tasks such as eyes-free proofreading, data verification (e.g. spreadsheets), reading E-mail and more. User-changeable parameters provide control over the sound quality by allowing for changes in pitch, and the speed of speech. An exception dictionary saves preferred pronunciation of words and abbreviations.
Monologue Win32 now includes support for the Microsoft SAPI. Monologue male "SpeechFonts" are available for US English, British English, German, French, Latin American Spanish, Italian. A US English Female SpeechFont is also available.
