Did you know that you can change the greeting message in K1000 when you launch it? Here goes:
-
Access the Settings menu and press Enter on the Verbosity item.
-
Focus will be on the Event combo box and you will hear the message: "to modify the system response for starting Kurzweil 1000 press Tab." If you do not then use the arrow keys to make sure that Starting Kurzweil 1000 is the selected option.
-
When you tab to the next control you have the choice of selecting either message or chime - for our purposes, make sure that the Message option is selected and Tab onwards.
-
The next edit field contains the text message that will be spoken so you can adjust or remove everything in here and input your own. (My message goes like this: "What? You want me to crash? I'll try my best!" I'm sure you can come up with something better than this!)
-
After you have created a masterpiece of a greeting, press the Tab key to move to the OK button and press Spacebar to confirm.
-
Now close down Kurzweil 1000 and restart it to test out your new message!
Now have a bash at creating a suitably witty farewell message using the same dialog box, just change the option in step 2.
