Fun speech synthesizer VI

[Mike Mogenson]

I discovered the System Exec VI yesterday and the first thing I thought to do with it was to make a front end for Mac OS X's built in speech synthesizer.  Download the VI and tell me what you think.

WIll only work on a Mac by the way.

I do not usually like my computer talking to me, but I did try it and it works.

What about a singing vi? Well it isn't really singing but it knows the words to the song.

[Mike Mogenson]

Here you go.  This would make a great prank.

If you put say.vi inside the loop and call it separately for each value of i then you would not need to kill the process to stop things.  You could also change the voice as the beer is consumed.

Putting the say VI outside the for loop was done on purpose.  Putting information about how to kill a process on the front panel was my consession.
