# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE: # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. # Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and # the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. # You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also # customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines. |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------| libespeak: libespeak (shared library from the espeak speech synthesizer) libespeak: libespeak: eSpeak produces good quality English speech. It uses a different libespeak: synthesis method from other open source text to speech (TTS) engines, libespeak: and sounds quite different. It's perhaps not as natural or "smooth", libespeak: but some find the articulation clearer and easier to listen to for libespeak: long periods. It can run as a command line program to speak text from libespeak: a file or from stdin. libespeak: libespeak: Supported audio ouput drivers: @DRIVERS@ libespeak:
