Robin has set up this page to avoid duplication of work.

now recorded.
How to test GPSS speaking Mandarin
The simple way to test GPSS speaking Mandarin is as follows:
- Install and test the GPSS Baseline from GPSS04A.EXE and GPSS04B.EXE.
- create a directory c:\Mandarin
- download MANDTRAN.EXE into c:\Mandarin using the link below.
- run MANDTRAN.EXE from DOS or Windows to self-extract the files.
- copy language.cfg from c:\mandarin to c:\gpss04 (or where GPSS.EXE is)
- run GPSS - which should start-up speaking as much Mandarin as it can,
limited by how many translated WAV files are in c:\mandarin.
- If you are the person doing the WAV translation, select a WAV file in c:\gpss04,
save it in c:\mandarin,
re-record over it in Mandarin. Then run GPSS again to see what files are missing.
- zip up new files to e-mail to Robin, to update MANDTRAN.EXE.
LANGUAGE.CFG in c:\gpss04 will make GPSS.EXE in \gpss04 use c:\Mandarin.
