For myself, the idea/concern is "reference material"
in text form...but that could be adapted into another format,
perhaps similar to the wordnet database.
I am not sure what the limits (size/topics) that can be preset or
added to uhal before diminishing returns set in (size versus
repsonse time).
The wordnet is a big help and should be very useful to most
folk and many students as well...so thank you for that effort.
Uhal is running now on a 2.60ghz htt enabled P4 system and
the response times are good...but the sapi 5.1 speech seems
to cause hal to complain about not being able to create
activex object...and if I only set the speech enabled and
try to skip the activex objection...then a lot of words
appear (on their own) into the text box and uhal answers
to those bits and pieces <sigh>, WinXP Pro SP1.
headset microphone and trained (advanced training)profile.
There are also times (normal typed mode)that uhal does
not speak_aloud a response..but the reply does show in
the text reply box, happened a bit in hal 4.5 also.
I did notice the learn from text reads the material
(scans) much better than version 4.5 but still 64kb limit.
