I'm getting a different error. The script I have
compiles correctly, but when I run it I get:
Newton
Sorry a problem has occured (-48808)
Then when I clear that window, I get:
Dashboard script error
An exception was thrown while attempting to execute
the script "Speak Text"
I have Macintalk installed and my Newton speaks to
people all the time!
I'm not familiar with the syntax, so I'm not sure how
to troubleshoot this.
From what I can see, I can create a script that just
says:
begin
PlaySound("this is a test");
end;
and I should get the Newt saying in the default voice
"this is a test"
And that works, so I assume that the problem is in the
either setting the local variables, or the loop.
But when I have the script that has the else, and the
playsound "you must select something first", it should
play that if I don't have any text selected. But the
script doesn't even get that far it seems because it
never plays that sound.
