Flite is a small, fast run-time synthesis engine, designed for

|
|
|
embedded systems and servers. Flite was developed by Alan W. Black and

|
|
|
Kevin Lenzo at Carnegie Mellon University, in Pittsburgh.

Starting with version 2.0.0, flite is able to load extra voice files
|
|
|
|
|
at runtime, in its own .flitevox format. If you want to include
|
|
|
|
|
loadable voices in the package, download the ones you want from
|
|
|
|
|
http://festvox.org/flite/packed/flite-2.0/voices/ and place them
|
|
|
|
|
in the same directory as the SlackBuild. They will be installed in
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/share/flite/, and can be used with the flite's -voice option.

The flite API documentation is available as a GNU info document,
|
|
|
|
|
via "info flite". The same docs are available as HTML in
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/doc/flite-$VERSION/html if:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- You have Slackware's tetex package installed, or...
|
|
|
|
|
- You have texlive and texi2html installed from SBo.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The API docs are only needed for developers who intend to write code that
|
|
|
|
|
uses flite as a library. If you have build errors that mention texi2html,
|
|
|
|
|
try 'export HTML=no' in the script's environment.
