synthasizers

[Janina Sajka]

You have two choices for software speech with Speakup:

1.)	You can buy TTSynth for $40 U.S. and build its speakup-connector
driver to have software speech from Speakup. More details are on the
TTSynth Home Page:

	http://TTSynth.Com

	This is probably the easiest way to get from here to there.

2.)	You can use speech-dispatcher and speechd_up with two free
voices and several for pay voices. The free voices are espeak and flite
and are both available as rpms. More information on this approach at:
