Would really like to see a dialect-wide selection option in the pronunciation editor, so for example, I could setup one dictionary to apply to all my non-US English voices).

Hi Jim,

Yep. I noticed this too when changing voices last week. Thought it was something idiosyncratic to my setup.

I convert about 10-15 news articles a day to MP3 using TA. Once in a while, though, I get half-way through a long article and end up someplace where I can't listen, but could read, and wish I could finish the article.

From TextAloud main window, select Tools | Pronunciation Editor Maintenance Select Dictionary you want to add to, or create a new dictionary if none exists, and then select that one. From File Menu drop down (still in Pronunciation Dictionary Maintenance), click on "New Entry" In Text Matc...

Try creating three separate regex pronunciation editor entries -- one for each of the following, and setting the pronunciation be <s> (http:[\\/]{2})*w{0,4}?\.?([-\w]+)\.(com|net|org|gov|biz|us|cc|info|edu)([%?&A-Za-z0-9\/+=,._-]*) (http:[\\/]{2})*([-\w]+)?\.?([-\w]+)\.(com|net|org|gov|biz|us|cc...
