Yes spd-say is the command to use to send text threw speech-dispatcher. Say -a " " is the command to use to send text to the dectalk and is how speech-dispatcher sennds commands to it. Flite and festival have there own commands also. You can address any loaded modual threw speech-dispatcher like this spd-say -o flite "testing again" replace "testing again" with what ever text you want speech-dispatcher to send to the requested software module. Remember you can only send out put to modules that you have loaded. In the speech-dispatcher configuration file.
