<DIV>Hi Brandon and list,</DIV>
<DIV>I like the new edition much better. The menu is very
nice.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>One suggestion I would like to see in a future release would be a text file
containing the phoneme chart and just a little information about how to use
them. I don’t know how long this list would be or if you have it on disk
or just in print, but it would make a nice edition to your disk.</DIV>
<DIV>thanks,</DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr>So the disk that I released that had the two programs is now in
revision two. There is now a menu, and all programs when they terminate will
call the menu again. The same two programs are there, but they now have a bit of
intraductary text at runtime. There is a 3rd intro option, which launches a new
program on the disk, and gives a bit of info about the other programs. At the
end of this, you'll find a phoneme demo, of what can be done using the phoneme
mode of the Echo.
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Todo list</DIV>
<DIV>1. have each program forgo the startup text after you've run it at least
once per boot of the machine</DIV>
<DIV>2. add a copy utility to the disk</DIV>
<DIV>3. perhaps add a lightweight word processor, if there is sufficient
space.</DIV>
<DIV>4. Add a program that recalls phonemes from a texdt tile and reads them
line by line.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>User feedback welcome, let me know what else I should do. I'll give it my
best shot, I'm not a coder really, and I'm surprised this is working to be quite
frank about it.</DIV>
