The other day I listed to synthesized speech on a website and it blew me away. Yes, festival does a fair job except for words over grade-school level. (It stumbled on words with apostrophes that are usually encoded with a triplet-prefix, like 0xe2-0x80, 0x90.) With work in editing my festival pronounciation configuration filter, these things may be fixable.) So Q1: can anybody point me to these types of filters? And any guesses regarding a better kind of synthesizer. thanks in advance, people, gary kline -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix http://jottings.thought.org http://transfinite.thought.org _______________________________________________ kde-accessibility mailing list kde-accessibility@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-accessibility
