Final Version of
ENGLISH TO PHONEME TRANSLATION
4/15/85
Here it is one last time. I have fixed all of the bugs I
heard about and added a new feature or two (it now talks
money as well as numbers). I think that this version is
good enough for most purposes. I have proof-read the
phoneme rules (found one bug) and made the program more
"robust". I added protection against the "toupper()"
problem some people had with earlier versions.
If you make a major addition (like better abbreviation
handling or an exception dictionary) please send me a
copy. As before, this is all public domain and I make
no copyright claims on it. The part derived from the
Naval Research Lab should be public anyway. Sell it
if you can!
