If you just use the "tts" function, then you should not have to download SAPI - in particular if you use Windows 7 or Vista.

I have submitted an update, which has fixed the bug mentioned by Jason. Furthermore there are a couple of new features - Enjoy.

I discovered and fixed a bug in your Greedy EDI program that prevents it from running in UNIX environments. The culprit is a line of code near line 82 of show.m where you hard-code path delimiters as \

MATLAB provides the fullfile function for constructing platform-appropriate paths. Below is the code with some original lines commented that should work on all platforms and resolve this issue:

if fig ~='x'
            % directory = 'images\basic\';
            name = '120px-Chess_tile_';
            ext = '.png';
            if color %white (attention - transparency issues)
                color_letter='l';
            else
                color_letter='d';
            end
            % file_name = [directory name lower(fig) color_letter ext];
            file_name = fullfile('images','basic',[name lower(fig) color_letter ext]);
            [X, map, alpha] = imread(file_name);
            %handle = image(pos(2)-1+[0 1],8-pos(1)+[0 1],mirrorImage(X),'AlphaData',mirrorImage(alpha));
            handle = image(pos(2)-1+[.1 .9],rows-pos(1)+[.1 .9],mirrorImage(X),'AlphaData',mirrorImage(alpha));
            
            % There are some major transparency issues!!!
            set(handle,'AlphaDataMapping','direct');
