Hello All,

Just a quick message to say hello.  I've been looking through the archives
and have noticed a familiar face or two (hi Vaughan).

This past weekend I was playing around with the ViaVoice Outloud speech
synthesis engine for Linux, and did a total rewrite of the cmdlinespeak
code included with it.

http://www.plumb.org/tekmage/source/spk2_0.0.1.tar.gz
http://www.plumb.org/tekmage/source/spk2/

I rewrote it to take advantage of the STDIO input and output pipe
structures, turn -v and -vs into the \`v and \`vs voice-altering commands.
It speaks any quoted arguments as pre-pipe text, like a spoken header, and
I added a -done switch to provide a post-pipe piece of text to speak.

On my todo list:  add a default eci.ini location, search path, and command
line -eciini command-line switch.

If anyone has a moment to try it out and make any suggestions, I'd greatly
appreciate it.

Thanks,

Andrew.
