Hi,
I realise you use OS X , butand after examining the Snack source code (it is
very poorly
coded imho), i'm too disillusioned with Linux Tcl Audio (Snack) to work on this
much. Sound hardly works on my computer,
I'm not real keen on the voices either. I don't think the computer generated
voices are accurate
enough to use with Scid. I'm forwarding this to the mailing list in case anyone
else is interested.
cheers, Steven.
