I realised that I had sent this message to the Lexicography list again
as soon as I hit the Send button, but by then it was to late. I had
wanted to send it to the LTS List instead. Seeing as Sheldon is a
former Mac user, i think he'll be tickled to hear your story.<br>

<div>Yes, this is a duplicate, but I followed your instructions in
the former message, downloading EasyRecorder for the XP system I am
running on my Mac. I hope Sheldon wouldn't be too upset if he knew :)</div>

<div>I have been through the tutorial; it seems this would be quite
fun to work with a native speaker on. Thanks for the info.</div>

class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;">Hello
all,</span><br style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;">
<br style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span"
style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;">This is a cross posting
from another mailing list. My apologies if you received this earlier.</span><br

<span class="Apple-style-span"
style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;">! Toolbox is a good
program to use for making wordlists and dictionaries
. It also has the ability to play back sound recordings. These
recordings can be anywhere on your computer, but it is better to put
them into a subfolder where your wordlist or dictionary file is
located. </span><br style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;">
<br style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span"
style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;">A sample Toolbox record
could look like this:</span><br
style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span"
style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;">\lx headword</span><br

style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;"><span
class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;">wav
(this would point to a sound file named 'sample.wav' in a folder named
'media' which resides in the folder where the dictionary data file is
stored)</span><br style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;">
<br style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">In Toolbox,
pressing F4 or shift+F4 plays back the sound file referenced in the \sf
field.</span><br style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span"
style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px;">Up until now it has
been a fairly tedious process to record words, label them individually
and enter that information into your database. Recently, a colleague of
mine developed a program called EasyRecorder that will read Toolbox
files and record speech for each record just by using the arrow keys of
your keyboard. The program reads your data file and displays all the
words in your dictionary like the browse view in Toolbox. You can do
some customization of which fields to display. You must also specify
where you want to store the sound files. Pressing the right arrow key
starts the recording, pressing the left arrow key stops the recording.
Pressing the down arrow moves the focus to the next word or record.
When the left arrow keys gets pressed, recording stops and the program
saves the sound file w! ith the text in the \ge field as its name
(another field can be specified as well). The sound file is saved in
the specified folder with the name from the gloss field and the name
and path is entered in the \sf (sound file) field of the database. This
is about as quick and pain-free a method to add sound recordings to
Toolbox files as could be possible. All you need is a microphone and a
computer that can record sound. There are video tutorials on the site.
Please note that this program is still in an alpha stage of
development, but it does what it promises to do already. For peace of
mind, make a back up of your data before using this program. I'm sure
the developer would love to hear about bugs, suggestions for
improvement, or praises for this awesome utility.</span><br
