Re: Tweaking flite vocabulary in maemo-mapper

There is a full version of Festival available for Maemo, you can have it speak in a lovely female voice, or in Spanish:

The package comes with a script that replaces flite for Maemo Mapper.

I installed Flite to speak directions in maemo-mapper, but I can't
understand what it's saying half the time. There isn't AFAIK a button to
press to make it repeat the phrase, either.

It is using a fairly limited set of words (turn, left, etc.) taken from
Google directions (apart from street names, that is). I was wondering if
it was possible to adjust the pronunciation of these common words, or
even to steal sound bites from e.g. navigator.
I had an idea that something was possible in rsynth (precursor to
festival), or by mis-spelling words to lengthen vowels etc.
The docs for Festival suggest that all sorts of things are possible, if
only I understood Lisp :-)
