Hello!
I'm looking for a german software speech that is compatible with BRLTTY. It
should be freeware or GNU/GPL.
I heard about mbrola, but that's just for sbl.
thanks
Yasemin

We could write an mbrola speech drivedr for brltty. It isn't a full
text-to-speech engine, though. At least two additional pieces of information
need to be supplied, i.e. the voice database and the text-to-phoneme converter.
Is there a standard way to do this, or should brltty's mbrola speech driver
simply have two required parameters? How do other speech solutions handle
mbrola?

Hello!
brass - a brltty fork - has a driver for the combination of mbrola and
hadifix, a text to phoneme converter for german.
Have a look at: http://butenuth.onlinehome.de/blinux/index-en.html
The driver could be integrated in brltty, too.
Regards
Roger
