Yak 1.1.1 - Yak is my first Newton app which I created in order to aquaint myself with Newton development, the NTK environment and Newtonscript. It is a simple little text-to-speech engine which exists as a sort of "extension" - it does nothing by itself but its functions are called by outside applications. This means that you can write your own programs to take advantage of Yak's (somewhat peculiar) vocal stylings...even from NS BASIC! The Yak software included here consists of three main parts: (1) Yak 1.0 package (2) Yak "Control Panel" (3) A little Yak-applet, "NoteYak," which works with the Newton's internal "Notes" application to read stuff outloud to any hapless individual in earshot.
