Hey ho... didn't really know where to ask this... Can anyone recommend an open-source, non GPL, Text-To-Speech library for LINUX please? I'm currently in the process of writing a BlitzMax "Speech" module which I hope will share a common API for all platforms. I currently have it running on Mac (native) and Windows (SAPI). It'd be nice to have it work on Linux too :-) Thanks in advance for your assistance, folks! ps. I'd just like to say, that working out how to call COM in BlitzMax is a nightmare in hell, but amazingly, after I got it to compile, it all worked the first time I ran the example app! |

I could only find Festival, everything else was GPL. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festival_Speech_Synthesis_System |

There's not much out there, is there? Tis a shame... The Festival API isn't very useful either... : festival_say_text() But perhaps that's all you are meant do with these things :-p |
