Currently, we are rewriting rsynth to eventually act like any standard speakup driver. We are also extending the drivers to be loadable as modules and they will support a standard device driver interface in the /dev system. They will most likely be part of the major device misc and will probably have the name /dev/synth. > Is it possible to get the DoubleTalk command set description somewhere? > As I have stated earlier we have some software synthesis working and we > would like speakup to be able to use it in the future. I know rsynth a > bit (I have played with it some time ago) but it's english "only" :-). I can send you the DoubleTalk programmers manual if you like. I would like to hear more about your software synth. Is it going to be gpl'd? I agree it would be nice to support more than just English. I think we may be able to extend what I think we are going to call TuxTalk to also support other languages if we get enough help and responce over time. > The last question: have you considered to attend the LSM in Bordeaux > (lsm.abul.org)? Well, I never heard about it before this mornings posting. There is no way I could afford to go to France for a confrence like this. It certainly looks interesting though.
