Well, Viavoice is a bit of a catch 22. IBM is no longer maintaining viavoice, and as I understand it people are not really allowed to redistribute it any more. So end result is it has dried up on the net. In all honesty since Outloud is not being maintained any more it's rapidly get out of date, and harder and harder to run on newer Linux systems. It is problably better to build something like flite with 16k voices, and stick with that. ----- Original Message ----- From: Lorenzo Prince <lorenzo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Friday, April 11, 2003 6:58 PM Subject: Re: speakup and emacspeak > Where can I get Viavoice now?
