| This directory contains the BRLTTY speech driver for the Mikropuhe text to |
| speech engine [http://www.mikropuhe.com] from TimeHouse |
| [http://www.timehouse.fi/oy/en/]. It was implemented, and is being maintained, |
| by Dave Mielke <dave@mielke.cc>. |
| |
| BRLTTY's configure script automatically includes this driver if Mikropuhe has |
| been installed. The default is to check the directories /usr, /usr/local, |
| /usr/local/Mikropuhe, /usr/local/mikropuhe, /opt/Mikropuhe, and /opt/mikropuhe. |
| The actual location can be explicitly specified via --with-mikropuhe. |
| |
| Check the date of the file "libmplinux.so" within the Mikropuhe package to |
| ensure that you have a recent enough version. It must not be dated earlier than |
| February 23, 2004. Please see the instructions on the Mikropuhe CD-ROM or at |
| [www.mikropuhe.com]. |
| |
| This driver can be either dynamically loaded (at run time) or built directly |
| into a dynamically linked BRLTTY binary (via --with-speech-driver), but it |
| cannot be built into a statically linked BRLTTY binary (via |
| --enable-standalone-programs) because the Mikropuhe package doesn't contain a |
| static archive. |
| |
| This driver recognizes the following parameters: |
| |
| Parameter Settings |
| name name (/path/to/mikropuhe/name.pu5) |
| pitch -10-10 |
