Hello
I've succeeded running older version ov TextAloud on
my machine (to some extend). It means that now I can
type my registration code in the application and
continue with running TextAloud. Later at some moment
it ties to use TTS engines and then it shows the
message that TTS engine isn't installed. I've
installed AT&T Natural voices in TextAloud directory
and have instructed TextAloud to use them. The
microsoft TTS engine is in another directory (not
inside TextAloud), but I don't use it. My directory
tree looks like:

/home/user/TextAloud/TextAloud.exe
/home/user/TextAloud/ATTNaturalVoices/
/home/user/MsSpeechEngine/

I'm not sure whether Microsoft TTS is required when I
use AT&T natural voices and if so how to instruct wine
to use them (/home/user/MsSpeechEngine) when launching
TenxtAloud under wine
