Glen,
Do you know where the voice file updates are kept? Are they in the same
package with the daily builds, or are they kept on a different part of the
website?

Also, make sure that your voice file is up to date as is the daily build, if
you are using an old voice file, there will be no entries for that menu, as
they had not been thought of yet. Glenn

Can you name examples?

These spawn the directory browser for special directories and files. If you
have file numbering or spelling on, you should get some feedback.

The menus should be pretty complete.

We have to watch the resource consumption for the voice feature. Space in
the voice file is limited. The F2/F3 menus are different and difficult,
there is no cursor hovering over choices, like our main menu is convenient
for speaking the entries. Voice support here would mean something like first
reading instructions which arrow key would do what (can be annoying) and
then echoing the setting you've just altered by an arrow key. Since the
F2/F3 menus are in focus for a change anyway (context sensitive menu and
customizable menu), we better wait until this is done.
