Hello,
the app needs 'winetricks vcrun2005' due to missing VC++ 2005 manifests from
WinSxS.
At startup the app displays a message box "Speech engine not installed" and
provides a download link.
Clicking the link lands on: http://www.vocaboly.com/download.php
There is no SAPI download nor link to MS, go figure ...
This site gives overview about different versions shipped with Windows:
https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Microsoft_Speech_API
Various redistributables versions can be downloaded from MS (part of SDKs),
example:
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=10121
SpeechSDK51MSM.exe is the one needed for redist Speech API/engines (merge
module).
As an interim solution, a winetricks recipe could be created (like VC++
redist).
IMHO implementing this is currently out of Wine's scope.
Providing stubs for all the APIs won't do any good to apps that require a
functional speech engine.
