------------------------------------------

Anyone who had an early Sound Blaster card back in the day will likely have... "interesting" memories of this little program. It was included with Sound Blaster cards to demonstrate the text-to-speech capabilities Creative Labs had come up with at the time, the program itself sort of simulating a psychologist... sorta... actually, only barely.

I do apologize if this filler's kinda boring, so there's a bunch of stingers at the end of the video to make up for it. :B

------------------------------------------

Additional Information and Corrections:

* The only thing I can really add that isn't apparent from the video footage is that the program recognizes several special commands for altering things like speech pitch, screen width, and more. All commands are prefaced with a period. So for help, you actually type in ".help" instead of just "help".

* I recall that there's actually a way to get a parity error WITHOUT swearing, but I forget how it's done and couldn't figure it out again in time for this filler.
