<p>An interpreter is provided which enables a user of a computer to add additional function to existing programming applications independent of the applications. The interpreter interfaces between an advanced function, such as voice synthesis, and an application, such as an office calendar and mail system. The user defines the part of the application on which to apply the voice synthesis in a high level computer language. This definition can include transformation of touch tone pulses to commands for the application as would generally be entered by keyboard. The definition then applies the function as directed by the user, such as to read the mail, or read the calendar, either by means of speaker coupled to the computer or over telephone lines to a remote user.</p> |
