Subject: speakup direct mode
Date: Sat, 18 Oct 2008 19:43:11 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081019004311.GA8440@linux1> (raw)

All,

I have added a feature to speakup in git which will allow characters to
be directly sent to a synthesizer without using speakup's built in
character pronunciations.

The feature is controled by the "direct" pseudo file in
/sys/module/speakup/parameters.

Currently this is only supported by the softsynth and is off by default.

If you would like to enable this feature, issue this command when the
softsynth is active.

echo 1 > /sys/module/speakup/parameters/direct

The goal, after more testing, will be to make it default to on for the
softsynth and add support for it, defaulted to off, for all of the other
drivers.

The reason for this feature is that it will allow better support for
foreign languages, in particular, since software synthesizers like
espeak already support them.
