# DECTalk software output module is based on the generic plugin for Speech
|
||
|
|
# Dispatcher. It means there is no C code written explicitly for
|
||
|
|
# this plugin, all the specifics are handled in this configuration
|
||
|
|
# and we call a simple command line client to perform the actual
|
||
|
|
# synthesis. Note that this is not an optimal solution, but
|
||
|
|
# it's reported to work.
|
||
|
|
#
|
||
|
|
# Please note that DECTalk software is currently *not* Free Software.
|
||
|
|
# You might want to look at Festival instead.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# GenericExecuteSynth is the shell command that should be
|
||
|
|
# executed in order to say some message. This command must
|
||
|
|
# stop saying the message on SIGKILL, otherwise it's useless.
|
||
|
|
# You can use the variables $LANG, $VOICE, $PITCH and $RATE
|
||
|
|
# which will be substituted for the appropriate value (you
|
||
|
|
# can modify this value, see other parameters).
|
||
|
|
# The command can be split into more lines, if necessary, using '\'.
|
||
|
|
# NOTE1:
|
||
|
|
# Users of previous versions of this configuration file need to rename their
|
||
|
|
# DECTalk command-line program back to `say', since speech dispatcher no
|
||
|
|
# longer installs a program with this name. Thus, the reason for
|
||
|
|
# renaming the client in the first place is gone.
|
||
|
|
# NOTE2:
|
||
|
|
# DECTalk software version 4.61 is known to occasionally stop reading,
|
||
|
|
# due to a buffering problem with the `say' program. So far, the only way
|
||
|
|
# I know of to fix this is to upgrade from DECTalk 4.61 to DECTalk 5.
