What we need are things like: 1. Numbers to words (e.g. 123 -> one hundred twenty-three) 2. Abbreviations to the words they stand for (e.g. st. -> street) 3. Dollars and cents to English (e.g. $123.45 -> English) 4. Acronyms -> the words they stand for Basically the routines needed do text expansion, for something like a text to speech system. Any language will do.... Please respond vial mail to {decvax, ihnp4, ucbvax}!pur-ee!bronson or bronson@purdue-ecn.arpa
