I am wanting to add some additional voice prompt wav files to SEM (from Fred Espenak). I cannot find the directory I need to copy the files to. Anyone know the directory path for the voice prompt files?

Thanks,
Brent

The .wav files are in:
/Applications/Solar Eclipse Maestro.app/Contents/Resources/Sounds
Don't copy things to there, though.

According to the help:
Additional sounds can be provided by putting them directly in the following user folder:
~/Library/Application Support/SolarEclipseMaestro/AdditionalSounds/
That folder is created automatically by Solar Eclipse Maestro and can be opened directly by selecting the corresponding item in the Window menu.

To have the additional sounds available for every user, put them directly in the following folder:
/Library/Application Support/SolarEclipseMaestro/AdditionalSounds/

In my scripts, I use the 'say' command, like this ...
COMMAND,C2,-,00:10:00.1, , , , , , , , ,'10 minutes' voice prompt; say -v Samantha 10 minutes
