$SELF - wrapper for pico2wave, renders text to speech and
|
|
$INDT plays it using the 'play' command.
|
|
|
|
Written by B. Watson <urchlay@slackware.uk>, for the SlackBuilds.org project.

Licensed under the WTFPL. See http://www.wtfpl.net/txt/copying/ for details.
|
|
|
|
If a -l <language> option is given, it will be passed to pico2wave.
|
|
|
|
Exit status of $SELF is that of pico2wave.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
|
|
$SELF 'Hello world.'
|
|
Speaks "Hello world" in the default language (en-US).
|
|
|
|
$SELF -l en-GB 'Hello world.'
|
|
As above, in a British accent.
|
|
|
|
fortune -s | $SELF
|
|
Reads from standard input.
|
|
|
|
$SELF < /etc/motd
|
|
Speak a text file. Don't forget the < or it says the filename instead.
