These will (ideally, assuming we remember when generating tarballs) still be mode 0755 inside the tarballs, but we would prefer to have them mode 0644 on the server. It's probably not really important, but just call us OCD like that. ;-) Signed-off-by: Robby Workman <rworkman@slackbuilds.org> |

eSpeak is a compact open source software speech synthesizer for English and other languages. eSpeak produces good quality English speech. It uses a different synthesis method from other open source text to speech (TTS) engines, and sounds quite different. It's perhaps not as natural or "smooth", but some find the articulation clearer and easier to listen to for long periods. It can run as a command line program to speak text from a file or from stdin. portaudio is optional but highly recommended: To actually produce audio output, this package requires portaudio V19 (available on slackbuilds.org). Without portaudio, espeak will only be able to render speech to a wav file (which may still be useful to you). To build without portaudio support, set WAVONLY=yes in the script's environment.
