Turn-Talking takes the non-verbal person that needs conversation, on a guided tour of taking turns to talk (like turn-taking, only talking!). A supervisor writes a script, and has a person, close in age to the talker, record the talkers phrases. Turn-Talking then conducts that conversation.
Turn-Talking helps you interact appropriately in a conversation.
As with all my newer software, you customize Turn-Talking by writing the scripts, and doing the recording. You can even import your own pictures to represent the Turn-Talkers, or use the provided ones.

TablEdit is a program for creating, editing, printing, and listening to tablature and sheet music (standard notation) for guitar and other fretted, stringed instruments.

Additionally, TablEdit, while designed for guitarists by guitarists, is not limited to guitar like other Tablature programs. Through ongoing consultation with experts on other instruments, TablEdit has developed support for harmonica, mountain dulcimer, diatonic accordion, drums, violin, tin whistle, recorder, autoharp, pedal steel guitar, and banjo (even taking into consideration the special aspect of the fifth string).

TablEdit can open/import ASCII, MIDI, ABC, Bucket O Tab, Tabestry and Wayne Cripps files, as well as files created by earlier versions of TablEdit. Files can be saved in TablEdit format or exported to ASCII, HTML, ABC, MIDI or WAV formats.
