SAPI5 for modern PB.

[Ty1003]

Hi.
I have been trying to get SAPI5 to work in modern PB. However, I have run into issues each time.
PureTTS simply doesn't load with more modern PB.
And PBEx_Speech does not allow for stopping the speech in the middle of speaking.
I was wondering if anyone has any other solutions? Because of the nature of this project, I need to be able to stop the speech if it's currently speaking.
Thank you!

This workes fine,

it can pause and stop the speak.

but you have to change line 517 to 521. like it says in the comment

I use Dobro's library (source here: viewtopic.php?f=12&t=51028).

It lets you enumerate the available voices and has a simple Speak() procedure.
As written, it doesn't let you interrupt speech, as Speak() doesn't return until the speech is done.
However, if you change this line

Code: Select all

VoiceObject\Speak(*mem,0,0)

to

Code: Select all

VoiceObject\Speak(*mem,1,0)

you can interrupt speech with

Code: Select all

VoiceObject\Pause()

whenever you need to.
