TtsApplication

Demonstrates
============
TtsApplication is an example of a text-to-speech (TTS) enabled application. This
sample application is intended to demonstrate many of the features for SAPI 5 in
a single coherent application. It is not a full featured TTS-enabled application
although the foundations of many of the options are present.

TtsApplication allows you to hear the resulting audio output from the TTS
process for text entered in the main window. Alternatively, you can open a file
and TtsApplication will speak the contents of that file. Each word is
highlighted in the text window to indicate the current TTS processing position.
 
Sample Language Implementations
===============================
This sample is available in C++.
