Neville,
and all other users of the Extended Dictionary.
The Capture Spoken Phrases app, is part of the Extended Dictionary
package. Yet it is NOT an essential part of the package. As a matter of
fact, the Extended Dictionary itself, could well run without this part
being operative.
As has been the case since the very first release of the package, every
version has its expiration date. And please, I have dealt with that part
of it a number of times before. This is the way the Extended Dictionary
has been developed, and will not be changed. So please abstain from
further arguing on the matter.
Unfortunately, a bug has sneaked into the package release of version
0.69.5 - the latest version - which all current users will be running.
The Capture Spoken Phrases app, has got a too short expiration date
stamp. I will attempt to have a fix for this within this weekend, at the
latest very early next week. I have rechecked the case prior to writing
this, and can confirm that the Extended Dictionary itself, will still
work for a good long time. In other words, should your Capture Spoken
Phrases app stop working, due to expiration, it only means that this
extra feature of the package will be unavailable.
For your information, this is the app that by default will be invoked,
when hitting Alt-Insert-C, and which will let you see the exact phrase
sent to the speech synthesizer.
To reassure you all, the extended Dictiona in all its main
functionality, will still be working for a considerable time. I do
appologize for the bug of the Capture Spoken Phrase app, and will
attempt a quick remedy. You will all be notified when the fix is
available for download. Should you want it faster, contact me off-list,
and I will send you the updated file.
For your info, if the extended Dictionary app itself was about to
expire, you would have received a dedicated message, clearly stating
that it is the Extended Dictionary that is closing in on expiration. In
this case, the message you get, is that it concerns the Capture spoken
Phrases.
Neville, thanks for pointing out the bug. May I ask that people who
experience clear bugs in the package, please will contact me directly.
My sincere apologies for any inconveniences caused.
