Re: dectalk etc. vs soundblaster (fwd)

[Jos Lemmens <jlemmens inter nl net>]

A few years ago, when I could read a normal monitor, I used an Amiga 500. 
Commodore had build in a quite good speech synthesizer. Now I run Linux
on a pc and wonder why nobody used the phonetic library of the Amiga
for Linux. I myself don't know how to do this, but there should be 
someone that can make this port.
