| This directory contains the BRLTTY speech driver for the SpeechDispatcher text |
| to speech server [http://www.freebsoft.org/speechd]. It was implemented, and is |
| being maintained, by Dave Mielke <dave@mielke.cc>. |
| |
| BRLTTY's configure script automatically includes this driver if Speech |
| Dispatcher has been installed. The default is to check the directories /usr, |
| /usr/local, /usr/local/speech-dispatcher, /usr/local/speechd, |
| /opt/speech-dispatcher, and /opt/speechd. The actual location can be explicitly |
| specified via --with-speechd. |
| |
| If this driver is built as a dynamically loaded shared object (the default), |
| i.e. it isn't linked into BRLTTY's binary via --with-speech-driver, then the |
| directory $SPEECHD_HOME/lib must be added to the colon-delimited list of |
| directories in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable before BRLTTY is |
| started because Speech Dispatcher's own shared objects don't contain run-time |
| search paths for their internal dependencies. |
| |
| This driver recognizes the following parameters: |
| |
| Parameter Settings |
| port 1-65535 |
| module name (flite, festival, epos-generic, dtk-generic, ...) |
| language two-letter language code |
| voice type (male1, female1, male2, female2, male3, female3, |
| child_male, child_female) |
