This program was based on source of a beta release of JLIB. The author
modified the sources a bit, compiled and released as shareware. After
being flamed badly and being contacted by the author of JLIB, he made
a public apology and requested all copies of filhst10.zip be deleted.

sbvoice.zip Ethan Brodsky's SBvoice unit - SB, VOC (pascal)
Removed by the request of the author. This is an old version (1992) of
sbvox (1994), but people were still downloading it more often than the
preferred version. Guess I'll have to rewrite the sbvox description..
