using speakup with festival or flite

[Lorenzo Prince]

Well, I did test Festival, and it works.  The kernel, festivsl, and the
middleware all compiled with NO errors.  I also tried festival_server,
with a modification to the path to make it work, but that didn't help.  I
haven't however tried tweaking the festival_server script itself.  I will
try that.

Thanks,
Lorenzo
