.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
.B pico2wave
|
||
|
|
is a small footprint Text to Speech utility, using the SVOX Pico
|
||
|
|
engine \fB[*]\fR. It converts
|
||
|
|
text given on the command line (or standard input, if no
|
||
|
|
\fI<words>\fR on command line) to audible speech, and writes
|
||
|
|
to a RIFF .wav file.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
The generated wav files are PCM, 16-bit mono, 16KHz sampling rate.
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
\fB[*]\fR The SVOX Pico engine is a software speech synthesizer for German, English
|
||
|
|
(GB and US), Spanish, French and Italian. SVOX produces a clear and
|
||
|
|
distinct speech output made possible by the use of Hidden Markov Model
|
||
|
|
(HMM) algorithms.
|
||
|
