Some googling finds a Perl module for interfacing with Speech Dispatcher. I can't vouch for its quality or usefulness. If it doesn't suit you, perhaps you can improve it. The other option is to call out to the spd-say binary. Be careful here, because this is the sort of thing that can lead to nasty remote code execution bugs. -- Chris
