( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Thank you, atcroft!

Because I run WinXP and had trouble installing Festival under Cygwin, I modified this (slightly) to use Microsoft Direct Speech Synthesis (part of the Microsoft Speech API). My modifications were based largely on code found here, and of course, lots of assistance from, and hand-holding by, atcroft himself. (Thanks again!)

(99.99% of this is still atcroft's work, and he deserves the credit.)

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
