Thanks, David. I'm trying to convert web pages into audio files so I can listen to them on an iPod. So iTunes will be involved, but either AIFF or MP3 will do. The plan was to go LWP -> Mac::Speech -> something else. I was hoping to be able to pipe the text-to-speech directly into an audio file, but I haven't seen anything that does it without going through an analog connection. Except for a Windows shareware program, but that's no help. Once I saw the text-to-speech SDK on a developer CD. I'll go see what I can learn there. Much appreciated. --Shawn
