Hi,
Attached file, macspeechX.py, is a replacement for macspeech module
which used to be included in the Mac-Python distribution.
As name indicates, it works with MacOSX and has similar, if not same,
interfaces found in the old macspeech module.
It requires ctypes module newer than 0.9.6 and Mac OSX 10.{2,3.4}.
Python interpreter come with MacOSX may not work, at least for me,
so you might need to build and install python from the source code.
Python 2.4.1 and ctypes 0.9.6 should work well.
I hope someone will think it is useful.
Thanks,

"""
macspeechX.py ; Python Interface to Speech Syntheis Mangaer on Macintosh OSX.
requires; ctypes module(0.9.6 or later) and latest python interpreter.
Python interpreter pre-installed on OS may not work with latest ctypes module.
macspeechX tryed to simulate old macspeech module bundled with python(in
Pre-MacOSX era). The document for macspeech module should work on macspeechX
module.
