Hi I almost didn't see your msg.

I wrote the program over a year ago and originally only intended to use it
myself so I skipped over some of the niceties.

Since everyone who has dropped me a line asks for mouse/joystick control and
eliminating the /w7 hardcoding I plan to upload an updated version within 2
weeks (if everything goes well).  I have already started a C version which will
include the above and more but that may be a while in coming.

The driver is technically not capable of speech because when the device is
opened by a program it starts by initializing the Cart. to receive sound data. 
However I have had it occasionally talk when I ECHOed a msg to it?!? I would
suggest getting SSPAK.ar  to use the speech capability.  Should be somewhere on
the sysem.

And yes the driver does poke down the speed for unmodified S/SC's.

Thanks for the msg.  If you have any other comments pls send them my way.
