The dec-talk voices, constructed as I understand it first to simulate
speech for service members who lost their voices due to injury, are
some of
the best ever invented.
I am therefore profoundly surprised no one has made an effort to keep
patent so that indeed the voices can be carried over to more graphical
situations. My own hardware synthesizer, using dec-talk voices, the
reading edge, likewise has no
connection to Linux at all, not even in the command line,
Glad you found an express. would buy one myself if the price is right
smiles.
Seriously, who owns the patent for the dec-talk voices?

It's so much easier for me to hear than espeak. I wish someone would takte the time and write a module for speech-dispatcher so orca could use it.
Ok, I'm done venting.
