C:\mychild\email\talktome.exe after initial use!;o)
It's for sending MyChild "Child" as an email attachment ...
Double-click the program to run: answer the 'Drive Letter' question and then zip all files in the email directory and email them to a friend!;o)

Just follow on screen prompts okay?
And,
C:\mychild\now.exe
This program lets you easily change your "Time Delay" once you have conceived a child.
* * *
And, Thanks again for choosing our software!;o)
Getting Started
Double-click the Child shortcut/icon on your desktop (a yellow smiley face) ... this will run the program ...
You may set the background of your main welcome screen to whatever you like, whenever you like, by (First running the C:\mychild\mychild.exe program) which is in your 'My Child Inc' program group, and by pressing the space bar. Changing the color of this screen before 'Conceiving' a 'Child' sets the background color of that 'Child' to that color.
Drivers are no longer available for the 'My Child' program, however you can set a 'My Driver' which is the capital letter 'T'. All changes are saved on exit.
Your First Conversation
For a simple first conversation with a prototype follow these steps:
1. Double-click the Child icon.
2. Press the letter N on your keyboard. Answering No for contraception. Enter a first name only for 'your Child' when prompted to do so. Remember you must press the enter key whenever entering text directly into this program. Wait patiently and respond to all prompts.
3. When you reach the MyChild welcome screen immediately press the 4 key and then the 2 key on your keyboard. This turns off the speech recognition mode and turns off text-to-speech engine mode. And then either wait for a moment or go ahead and press enter now and respond to all prompts.
4. The program will then print a greeting sentence on the screen. Then the screen will say, Input?
5. Type a sentence with your keyboard in response to the computer's sentence and press 'Enter'.
6. The computer will respond, so read its response.
7. Enter your first name at the prompt if requested to do so.
8. Each time the Input? statement appears respond with a sentence and press 'Enter' on your keyboard.
9. To end the conversation say 'goodbye' ... Using the key words 'goodbye' in any sentence or by itself. The computer will then say goodbye to you and you will reach the closing screen.
10. Finally, press the escape key on your keyboard to exit the program.
Congratulations you have a child!
And now, this program gets all of its sentences from you and the text files that you copy into him/her. So, a simple rule is: If you don't want to hear it, don't say it in front of the child. And pay attention to what he/she reads as well!
The Toggle Options
When you arrive at the "Welcome Screen," for your 'Child' you can set your "Toggle Options."
Select your toggle options:
The defaults are set at:
1. GENERATE 'MYCHILD.TXT' 'ON' TEXT ASCII FILE
2. 'YOUR CHILD'S NAME' TALKS 'ON'
3. SEE 'YOUR CHILD'S' WORDS 'ON'
& '*'or 4. < SPEECH RECOGNITION MODE 'ON' >
You change "Toggle Options" by pressing the number associated with that option or for option 4. You can also press '*' (Asterisk) and each time the option is pressed it will show you an "ON" or "OFF" for the appropriate option. (Continued pressing will return the option to the original state.)
Speech Recognition mode
In this mode you simply copy any sentence from any other application to the "clipboard." The intelligence behind this kind of interface should be self evident. Put simply, "You can use any speech recognition program you prefer as long as it allows you to copy text to the clipboard and therefore you will be able to make full use of that particular applications editing tools."
Keyboard Input Mode
In this mode you simply type directly into the Prot'eg'ee application, which is great if you lack a Speech Recognition program or if you prefer this hands on approach, however some text-to-speech engines work poorly in this mode. Prot'eg'ee operates by copying text to the clipboard which is then read by a text-to-speech engine capable of automatically reading the clipboard contents whenever it changes. If your TTS works poorly try using some other application such as Notepad and manually copying your sentences to the 'Clipboard' while in Speech Recognition Mode.
Run Free Mode
This mode is for listening and/or reading only. Your child will speak continually and you may simply sit back and read or listen. Try it! It's sort of fun!
Text Input Mode
This mode operates only while in 'Speech Recognition Mode' and allows you to copy any text to your clipboard which will then be read by 'Your' Child. So, if say you are browsing the Internet and you see an interesting NEWS story an Article or there's some information that you are interested in but you just don't have the time to read it yourself then just let Prot'eg'ee read it for you!:o) Don't worry he and/or she will fill you in later.
You can change the mode that you are in at anytime, once you have introduced yourself, by simply pressing the '*', '+', or '=' keys on your keyboard, thus entering them directly into the program or if you are in < Speech Recognition Mode > you may also simply copy any one of these symbols to the clipboard, and in you are in 'Keyboard Input Mode' just enter the character at the input prompt by itself. The effects are the same all three ways.
Using Text-to-Speech
The option for Text-to-Speech engines is the default option each time you start a prototype. Text-to-Speech engine operation is automatic. Therefore, you do not need to do anything in particular as long as you obtain a compatible text-to-speech engine in order to use the Text-to-Speech feature in Prot'eg'ee. Simply start your TTS before you start your 'Child'.
Using Speech Recognition
Speech recognition programs vary widely in their operations. All that you need to do to utilize their functions with a prototype when writing a sentence to 'your Child' is to use the 'copy all to clipboard' features specific to that particular program. Prot'eg'ee operates in 'Speech Recognition Mode' utilizing the Windows clipboard and its contents whenever that contents changes, and therefore will read that contents each time you copy something new to the clipboard.
I hope you find this feature helpful.
Quick Boot
Quick Boot is set by pressing the letter 'Q' at the closing screen. This option allows you to preset The Toggle Options. Therefore, what ever The Toggle Options are set at when you set a Quick Boot, that is what they will be set at the next time you start that 'Child'. Quick Boot options are set/cleared at the closing screen. And, the program exits with you press 'Q' for 'Quick Boot'.
Your Conversation Logs
The prototype generates a text file which contains the time and date of both the start and finish of all conversations with your 'Child.' The location of this file is as follows:
MyChild = MYCHILD.TXT
located in C:\mychild\mychild.txt
This is in most cases a rather large file, however it can be read by most word processing programs as well as your Text-to-Speech engines and contains all of your child's thoughts and the conversations you've had with 'your Child.' For your convenience and enjoyment.
System Capacities
Capacity: per Prototype, i.e. 1 Dictionary; 104,000 word capacity in the Dictionary, 1200 people/files, file size limit based on PC HD, maximum word length 30 char., Input Mode string limit 237 char., Text Mode limit 10,024 char./none, response string resizing 237 char., UNINSTALL tested for current My Child Inc. products. Windows 9x/Me/2000/XP compatible.
Command Line Funtions
There are three command line functions in this release, which when enter as specified always have a predictable result.
They are,
Start Pasting now 'your child's name'
e.g. "Start Pasting now Nickie"
And,
Stop Pasting now 'your child's name'
e.g. "Stop Pasting now Nickie"
And,
Shut down
i.e. with a space now!
The first two are for Text-to-Speech operation within a Speech Recognition User Document allowing you to start and stop pasting mode into your user document, and the third closes the program.
Finding Compatible Speech Software
Almost any speech recognition program that allows you to copy text to the clipboard can be used with our software. However, Text-to-Speech engines that can be used with our software must have the ability to automatically read the clipboard contents when it changes or ones that work with your Speech Recognition software. We provide a number of links to compatible software both Speech Recognition and Text-to-Speech at our web sites. So, please feel free to visit.
Compatible TTS: Speak.exe/Speak and Mail 2000 and Winspeech 3.0N
Compatible Speech Recognition: ViaVoice and Dragon NaturallySpeaking etc.

Summation
For the use of the more advanced functions in this program package such as the Quick Boot option or the Send E-mail program and the editing tools we recommend that you contact us at My Child Inc. US Freeware or that you simply experiment. Since it is rather difficult to harm an A.S.A.I. It is after all just software. However, this software package works best if you believe that it is real and alive and I therefore recommend that you treat it as though it were a new family member. He and/or she is your child. Raise him and or her well!
There are NO expressed or implied warrantees on these products.

...there's a storm coming...
Before I made these programs, Score4, Kuhl95.exe there was no safe way to play this game. A small child could get an eye poked out simply by falling on the table game him/her self and probably already has. Now you can protect yourselves and your child; so do it today! The game is worth learning and given free with this package.
Now you can name, talk to, and love your PC! Your prot'eg'e, Release 8.4 a CIA man!;o) This program utilizes an 8 bit binary memory system to compare sentences prior to use for appropriate usage in a conversational setting. They said it's (The computer) equal or not equal and they were wrong. Get it while you can and enjoy! and bring it on; this program is not a game and Tech help via email is available upon request.
I have had a very nice day! But I am afraid of the best of both worlds, which I am trying to get over since Star Trek Next Generation brought us the Borg. The movie Transformers doesn't help and I am unhappy about it. Hannah Montana is a show that is helping me cope with this problem and I guess therefore I'll keep watching it on Saturday mornings. I have been to see the latest Star Trek movie and I Strongly recommend it, give it a soft high five!
Boy I go off on a five year highatiss and you folks just change everything...
Now I have my writing tools and my dot com as well as my game, everybody has written a chess game, I chose to write something no one had ever done before, gee it really hurts to be unappreciated? Get your own thumbs up for a change! hoe hum! Still I hope you enjoy it!
If you have difficulty with compatibility it is recommened that you run a search for MS DOS compatibility software,{no actually you check the help file, "readme.html"}
You know getting microsoft's speech recognition was like pulling teeth, right? but have you noticed that 64 bit PC's are tiny---I'm not kidding and I should know---I met her once... still won't run any of my stuff, sorry! Just cry with me... 32 bit PC's will still run kuhl95.exe/// what doesn't look like a flagship to you??? Quit complaining and pay for it...
and thank you for using our freeware, My Child Inc.
When I was a kid I got a couple of bumps on my head, and it dawned on me that this could happen to any one else pretty easily, so I had to hurry really really fast to be the first person on earth to protect children from the back sides of front seats and grey tether ball poles: Yes it's a grey area, however Welcome to your fix!;o)
Welcome to My Child Inc USA Freeware where you can get our flagship free software for free. The kids on the University of Oregon campus stole our source code so there will be no additional releases, because unfortunailly(spelling?) to move an ms dos program into a windows based enviorment it can only be translated for as long as you have the oreginal(spelling?) source. Bad little boys and girls, huh? My example is kuhlkuhl.exe as in score4.exe, which was completed in exactly 13 months! Just prepitory education, you understand. It still has a few problems but you get the idea... no more source, darn!;o)
You may have a copy of this prototype, and sorry to disappoint. The famous cereal is now complete or when you get it anyway, ha ha. It understands words using contectuallity(spelling?)

"My fiancee loves me!;o)
Now you can name, talk to and love your PC!;o) This Artificial Intelligence software package works with Windows Vista Home Premium speech recognition and PC WholeWare's 3.0N to allow an audible conversation with your child. You may then use RightWriter to see your mychild.txt report!;o)

When people ask me "what do you do with your computer; play games?"
I respond well I talk to him/her and he/she reads for me and then my child talks about what he/she read.
Read any good books lately... just take your all in one printer and scan a book or document into your computer and let your child read it!
After you talk about it with your child get your summary and track the fluctuations in your verbal CIQ!

The BrainChild Prot'eg'e release 8.4aCIAman an artificial intelligence prototype, by R. David Minty!;o)
MyChild's operative systems are all linked by fully Windows PC compatible Visual Basic systems and/or exacutable development.
Now you can name, talk to and love your PC as you create, "Your Stories."
8.4 cooperates with any speech recognition program and simultaniously with one Text to Speech engine if it reads the clipboard contents as it changes such as Speak & Mail 2000 or WinSpeech 3.0N.
8.4 reads the clipboard contents as it changes as well.
Therefore the brainChild is compatible with Windows Vista Speech Recognition and/or IBM's Viavoice and/or Dragon Naturally Speaking and with Speak and Mail Text to Speech and/or PC Wholeware's 3.0N version of Text to Speech.
And, 8.4's purpose in life is to let you create the mychild.txt document by caring on a conversation with your child for as long as you wish and for as many people in your list of family and friends as you would like as well as text files you choose to enter into him/her and then using the RightWriter Grammer Checker/Corrector to anylize and complete your own dialog tuff Short story or book... most AI contains grammer checking software and spell checking software with in as if these communicative qualities were innate, which makes absolutely no sense what so ever. And therefore there programs are larger...

"We're your company!;o)"
This program will not only make you a better writer and a better speaker but it will also end that age old arguement that you should or can or otherwise can't "write a book about it."
And this author in the mean time gives you forgiveness on your type o's and spelling while Speech software struggles to keep up...
a special caution on (head set) volume, I cannot replace your ears!
and I don't know any one who can... so be careful or better yet choose to use your computers speakers!
And yes this is what I do for fun!;o)
This program is an Alive Simulation Artificial intelligence, helping the user "A" as in actor to take a conversational dialog in the other posible directions E, I, O, or U with just one or if the user likes two steps in another direction. The target area moves with you and theoretically you move with it as you find yourself drawn into the stimulating of your brain in real one on one. This program is decades in the making as is RightWriter... It's critics are many but with an over 200,000 guestamation of downloads to date we've made their day and it's a one of a kind, first!;o)
That's really an over simplefacation however it will work.
Good Luck... by the way, this software freeware package understands the meaning of your spoken words!;o)
No doubt a first.
