Source code

If you have a chance, do us all a favor and post any code you can. It doesn't need to be fully polished; just examples would even be nice. There is no point in duplicating all the effort that goes into making a sound-using app; please please please donate your code somewhere (here would be nice, i'm more than happy to put it on my ftp site).

• Macintosh C pages , thanks to Ambrosia Software. Not aimed at sound, but this is a great resource for Macintosh programming in general.

• The alt.sources.mac archive , also hosted by Ambrosia Software.

• HyperArchive Source Code Directory. This has a lot in it; I've tried to include all of the speech-related source here, but there's a lot of other good stuff there.

• Speech Recognition SDK (software development kit) from Apple. Contains sample source code. Note you might have to include SIOUX consolestubs.c to compile it under CW, but it should not be an issue under CW9 or10.

• Speakable Applet (and source code!). In the words of Bill Cheeseman:
  
  Hiroshi Oda of Japan has brought to my attention his AppleScript Tools web site . Among other things, it contains a small application that recognizes spoken phrases, using Apple's speech recognition system software. Using the application as a sort of "template" according to his instructions, you can create additional applications to recognize any desired phrase, without regard to the name of the application file. The applications are scriptable (they have an 'aete' resource), and you can control the spoken phrases they respond to and what they do as a result by installing your own AppleScript scripts into the applications as 'scpt' resources using ResEdit.
  Special thanks to Oda-san and Cheeseman-san!

• TCPPlay saved my life. Lets you use your mac as an audio server from your unix box without buying an umpteen-thousand dollar card for the workstation. Includes source code!

• Malcolm Slaney's stuff at ftp.apple.com ; Mathematica and MATLAB toolboxes, and some great source code. Joe Bob says "check it out".
  His home page is well worth visiting.

• ExcelTalk , A Text-To-Speech extension for MS Excel. Includes documentation and source code!
