Yes, we can do that with the Rebel-Tiger GUI. So far only to announce the moves,
checks and checkmates.
I was planning to record 3 voices:
* mine in english
* mine in french
* my girlfriend's in french (and maybe in english too)
I don't know how this would be appreciated. Maybe some would say it's a little
bit too much egocentric. My idea was to get closer to the end user. I thought it
was less unpersonal to have the author of the engine himself announce the moves.
Not that I like my voice so much! :)
What do readers think of the idea? Anyway the user would have the choice to
select another voice, record one himself, or have no voice at all in the
program.
