kttsd for Debian
================
ktts is the KDE Text-to-Speech System.
more information may be found on the web page of the project:
http://accessibility.kde.org/developer/kttsd/
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
kttsd plugins
=============
kttsd comes with 3 kind of plugins:
o AudioPlugins
o FilterPlugins
o SynthPlugins
The synthetizer plugins rely on third party software, that you have to
install in order to make them fully functional (see kttsd Recommends:
field).
That software are :
o festival for the Festival Plugin.
o epos for the epos plugin.
o filte for the FLite plugin.
They all are packaged in debian.
There is a Command Plugin also, that allow you to use any TTS synthetizer
that has a command line interface.
kttsd contrib plugins
=====================
kttsd comes also with free Synthetizer plugins, but depends upon non free
software :
o FreeTTS plugin.
o Hadifix (mbrola/txt2pho) plugin.
You can find these plugins in the contrib section, in the package
kttsd-contrib-plugins.
For additional instructions on downloading and configuring these engines for
use in KTTS, please read the Appendix A of the kttsd handbook (either type
help:/kttsd in konqueror, or run khelpcenter help:/kttsd).
