Thank you for help, that info worked.
Just wondering if you can help me with what I hope to be the final problem. I get a make install error of:
# Install espeak executable install -m 755 espeak /usr/local/bin gmake: install: Command not found gmake: *** [install] Error 127
Any ideas? Is there something wrong with my makefile?
install: all # Create directories rm -rf $(DESTDIR)$(DATADIR) $(MKDIR) $(DESTDIR)$(BINDIR) $(MKDIR) $(DESTDIR)$(LIBDIR) $(MKDIR) $(DESTDIR)$(INCDIR) $(MKDIR) $(DESTDIR)$(DATADIR) # Install espeak executable $(INSTALL) -m 755 $(BIN2_NAME) $(DESTDIR)$(BINDIR) # Install shared library $(INSTALL) -m 755 $(LIB_NAME).$(LIBTAG) $(DESTDIR)$(LIBDIR) # Install static library $(INSTALL) -m 755 $(STATIC_LIB_NAME) $(DESTDIR)$(LIBDIR) $(LN_SF) $(LIB_NAME).$(LIBTAG) $(DESTDIR)$(LIBDIR)/$(LIB_NAME) +.$(LIB_VERSION) $(LN_SF) $(LIB_NAME).$(LIB_VERSION) $(DESTDIR)$(LIBDIR)/$(LIB_ +NAME) # Install development headers $(INSTALL) -pm 644 speak_lib.h $(DESTDIR)$(INCDIR) # Install data files cp -prf ../espeak-data/* $(DESTDIR)$(DATADIR)

Thanks for all your help.

    gmake: install: Command not found

    install is a little utility to copy files and set attributes. It doesn't come with all flavors of Unix, so you might want to install the GNU version (from the coreutils package) into some place where it's found along $PATH.  If all else fails, you should also be able to fake its functionality with a combination of cp, chmod and chown put into a little script. Or even simply copy the files manually...
