Hi,

I'm banging my head with Perl AGI script to produce wav file to be streamed with Festival's text2wave utility.
I have two lines of code:
------------------------------------

system('echo "' . $text . '" | text2wave -scale 1.5 -F 8000 -o ' . $fi
+lename . ' - ');

system('echo "' . $text . '" | text2wave -eval
"(voice_cmu_us_slt_arctic_hts)" -scale 1.5 -F 8000 -o ' . $filename . 
+' - ');

[download]
------------------------------------

Above line works, but with default voice. Line below doesn't work anymore (it doesn't produce any output wav file) although same line from command line works. Does system command strip or alter any characters ?

Any hint, opinion, I've lost any patience with this one so please help,

Regards,

Robert.
