SpeakToPh shows how to use invoke the Ph application using the Ph 
speaker/listener code.  It is intended for the programmer who wishes to
integrate Ph into his/her application.  This code is not intended for
production use.  Do not install SpeakToPh.  However, as with all speaker/
listener applications, the listener application (i.e., Ph) must be
installed in your ~/Apps or /LocalApps directory.
