[NTLUG:Discuss] text-to-speech recommendation

[Ed Leach - NTLUG]

I need a recommendation for how to do text-to-speech in Linux. I'd like
to use AT&T's Natural Voices but need a front end for it. I'm currently
using Read Please on my Windows PC and want to do something similar on
Linux. (Read Please does not have a Linux version.)

Note - I don't want or need voice recognition. Also, I'll be on SUSE
9.2, but would like an approach that would work with a variety of
distributions.

Thanks,

Ed
