Hi Josh,

When you say that the dos games work, I was just wondering if they work 
anything like they used to on a dos machine with a dos screen reader and 
hardware synthesizer.  That is the text if it was meant to, got spoken 
automatically.  And do built in review keys work?  I used built in review keys 
even in my dos games.  Sighted people would not see it, but I could write to 
the screen right over top of the same text and do it so that it was or was not 
spoken by the screen reader.

I still miss the locate function to locate and print text where you wanted it 
on the screen.  And of course the screen was always 80 columns by 25 rows.  And 
Jaws for dos would report row and column if you asked it to.  I was happy to 
put text on the screen when I could make sure that it would be spoken and be 
sure of it's format and position on the screen.  Now I am in Windows where that 
is not as easy for me to do, so I am more happy using the sapi5 text to speech 
engine.
