Are the sound files are where it expects them to be? The first line of the .txt file and the name of the folder must match. I think that the Windows version is more "general purpose" than the python one -- it actually looks at that line. If anyone hasn't checked out Parallel 2, I highly recommend it. Even if you don't consider yourself a beginner anymore :) As far as I know, it's the largest collection of recorded Lojban anywhere. http:// www.lojban.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=Parallel+2&bl mu'o mi'e .aleks.
