I put the FreeTTS package into the BLFS book a long time ago. At the time, there was a sight-impaired reader of the BLFS book who asked if there was anything that could be done to assist her with 'reading' the book. It was for that reason I put FreeTTS in the book. Flite and Festival might be better options, I do not know. Flight builds easily, but I have not tested it. I would like to work with you, but not because of whatever you said about "so goes Google, goes ...". If there was a 'reader' who could expand on the benefits that Speech Dispatcher provides, or if you could provide a bit more detail about your quest, I would be happy to work on this project. I have personal reasons for wanting to help sight-impaired people. Please provide some background that expands on your original post other than because the Chrome browser is "increasingly heavy on speech". I could care less about the Chrome browser. -- Randy rmlscsi: [bogomips 1003.23] [GNU ld version 2.16.1] [gcc (GCC) 4.0.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.6] [Linux 2.6.14.3 i686] 17:57:00 up 58 days, 3:56, 1 user, load average: 0.03, 0.03, 0.04 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
