Hi,

As a matter of interest, I managed to have some success with a DecTalk USB 
connected to a USB-to-serial adaptor in DosBox. It was clunky, though, so I 
really would suggest Dosemu in Linux as a better solution at this point.
If something more useable is found, I’m all ears, though. There were some great 
DOS games which haven’t been duplicated.
Best,
Zac.

The only version of windoweyes that will work with win3.1 is version 1. I beta

Josh, one of my VMWare images have here is some version of dos, with windows 
3.1, but, have never been able to do much with it, since couldn't manage to get 
the apparent installation of window eyes to run inside windows 3.1 myself, and 
have never bothered to get sighted help to handle that, since it's just always 
been something I never bothered deleting, partly since it's not all that large 
in file size.

However, wonder if something like this tiny talk screenreader might work/run within 
it - but, again, wouldn't be 100% sure how to copy it across to virtual file system, 
since while I can sort out VMWare file shares with virtual versions of windows, 
really don't know exactly how dos would even try to handle that...<smile>

hi thomas,
do you have speakup installed in ubuntu, or do you use archLinux? I like 
speakup. it is the closest thing I can come to using true DOS.

Hi Josh,

Honestly, I'm not surprised. The only way I have ever managed to run
any old Dos applications etc the last few years is by using Dosemu
with Speakup. It isn't a perfect solution, but it does work. I have
managed to play some games and run certain apps like Wordperfect 5.1
with Speakup. However, that requires a Linux distribution like Vinux,
Ubuntu, or some other distribution with Speakup, Espeakup, and Dosemu.
Otherwise I don't think you are going to find a better solution for
running old Dos games and apps. I've already tried running copies of
Jaws for Dos etc in Dosbox before all to no success.

Cheers!
