Future releases
"-'As
we
mentioned
earlier,
the
VS-100
is
an
ongoing
project-
We are
preparing a
suggestion/
satisfaction card
.
If this
card isn't
enclosed
with
this
manual,
you will
receive
one shortly
in
the
mail
.
We
are
gathering all
comments
and
criticisms. All
improvements will
be
included
in
subsequent releases
of
our text
to
speech
programs.
Watch
our ads for availability of new
releases.
When the
releases
are ready, we will advertise
them.
If you
are
the
first
user
to find a
legitimate
bug and send us some
details,
we will fix
the
software
and
update
your
disk
with
the
latest
version free of charge.
-^Kany enhancements
to
the VSED1T and the VS
programs
are being
planned.
(For
example,
variable pitch in PRINT*
statements,
a
text editor in
VSEDIT
etc.
) . Your feedback is
appreciated
.
—
»-At
the
time
of this printing, we have
preliminary
versions of text to speech converters
for
the
following
languages
:
Spanish
Italian
Esperanto
We have
also begun
research on:
Japanese
Latin
German
^Some
languages, such as French, Portugese
and some
Chinese dialects, use sounds that
are not available
in the
Votrax
chip. Only crude pronunciation could be achieved,
so they will not be
implemented.
-Soipe other languages, such as
Russian, can
be spoken
on the
VS-100,
however
their
use
of a different alphabet
makes
it
difficult to implement on
the
TRS-80.
