Hi,

I've played around with "FreeTTS".

It's not bad at all, and best of all, it's implemented 100% in Java, so no need to include horrible native libraries.

FYI : I just created an Ant task ( Ant is a cool build system for Java ). So that it would say "Build complete" when it was finished.

regards,

Owen

Guidelines.....

1. Learn how to ask technical questions properly in a forum.

2. Read the FreeTTS documentation fully

3. Get the FreeTTS example programs working, then experiment with them.

Nobody will answer your questions if you don't quote specific technical problems.

To compile the source file-

javac -classpath .\;C:\freetts-1.2.1-bin\freetts-1.2.1\lib\jsapi.jar HelloWorld.java

To Execute the class file directly--

java -classpath .\;C:\freetts-1.2.1-bin\freetts-1.2.1\lib\jsapi.jar;C:\freetts-1.2.1-bin\freetts-1.2.1\lib\freetts.jar HelloWorld

To create jar file using class and manifest file--

jar cvfm HelloWorld.jar Manifest HelloWorld.class

in this i have installed freetts in C drive
