You could roll your own:
- at speech start, store the seconds in "tStartSecs"
- at speech "pause", calc the [approximate] number of the
last word spoken:
put (revSpeechSpeed / 60) * (the seconds - tStartSecs) \
into tPauseWord
- at speech "resume", start at the resume point:
revSpeak (word tPauseWord to -1 of tMyWordContainer)
Actual implementation will be a little more complicated than this,
because you will have to accumulate the speech duration times as you go,
and subtract that from tStartSecs each time you resume.
FWIW -

Phil,
Thanks for the suggestion. I was unaware of RR's revSpeechSpeed property.
Unfortunately it is not very reliable. At a speed set at 150, rev
might speak anywhere from 128 to 154.
As an alternative I have put this handler into the field:
on mouseUp
put the clickchunk into tChunk
set the tClickChunkStart of field 1 to word 2 of tChunk
revstopSpeech
end mouseUp
And stop speech by ckicking on the point where I wish the next speech
to begin on resuming.
And then resume speech from char tClickChunkStart to char -1 of field 1.
Not exactly what I wanted, but it will do.
Thanks again,
Jim
