Hi all, I'm looking for a technique which will cause pauses in a long string of speech. It will be in a situation where it's very likely all the punctuation will be enabled, so simply placing some punctuation in the string isn't likely to help, just cause more to listen to.
my only thought, was to turn off all the punctuation, add punctuation to the string (maybe just a comma between parts will be enough, my experiments seem to show that anything else, or more than one doesn't do any better), speak the string, and then turn back on punctuation. The trouble with this approach is the timing; if something else is speaking when I do this, it will lose it's punctuation; if something is speaking afterwards, it may not have it's punctuation. luckily, I'm doing this as a result of a hot key, so maybe the timing isn't as much of an issue, I'm just not sure. anyway, does anyone have any thoughts or any better technique? thanks. Chip
