I use a batch file to run VSoup, run import, and then run Yarn, and I have
the batch file make a call to rsynth periodically (a freeware text-to-speech
utility) to read off each completed step using a nice speak-n-spell voice.
Just a thought for Warp users, anyway. Should be rsynth22.zip on Hobbes
somewhere (maybe in /os2/unix). There may be a DOS or Windows port or a
similar utility, I dunno...
