Voice Word Library (VOXLIB)

The voice word library contains an index file and a voice data file, giving the VOX environment a capability similar to text-to-speech.

The index file contains entries for each word in the library. Each entry consists of the following:

• The text of each word
• The starting position of—or pointer to—the associated (digitized) speech in the voice data file
• The length of the digitized speech segment (in bytes)

The voice data file contains the corresponding digitized speech data for each word in the index entry.

If a word does not exist in the voice word library, the VOX environment sounds out (spells) the letters of the unknown word, preventing the remote party from otherwise missing parts of a message.

Note: For more information on maintaining the voice word library, see the online help.
