playing sounds at startup

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



You use something like yasr with flite. this isn't a good solution because
you won't see all the startup/shutdown messages you do with speakup.  The
only problem is installation. you will probably need another computer
running a telecom package like teraterm and a serial cable or a machine
running a telnet client for a redhat/fedora (?) telnet install.

Speakup does support software speech as of recently, but I cant comment on
it as I've never used it. Your best bet is still hardware speech if you can
get a synth.
