Hi
Unfortunately what you get in that file is what's called a limited domain
voice. This means it only knows how to say certain things, such as numbers
for the time. The generic voices sound exactly like flite, unless you link
it to the mbrola voices. That will give you better quality but it will be
much less responsive. Based on what I've experimented with I'd say freetts
and festival are on par with responsiveness, flite being much faster. And
since FreeTTS's generic voices are identical to flite's, I wind up just
using flite when I need software speech.
