festival-freebsoft-utils was tested with Festival 1.4.3. Other versions of Festival may or may not work.
Having SoX (http://sox.sourceforge.net) installed is strongly recommended, many festival-freebsoft-utils functions don't work without it.
As Festival does not support UTF-8 encoding, festival-freebsoft-utils uses the iconv utility for character coding conversions. iconv is a standard part of some (e.g. GNU) operating systems, if you don't have it you can install it as a part of the libiconv library available at http://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/.
Installation itself is easy, just copy all the ‘*.scm’ files to
one of the directories present in the Festival's load-path. This is
typically ‘/usr/share/festival/’, you can get the exact list of
the directories by evaluating load-path in the Festival command
line interface. Then you can load the whole system at Festival
startup by adding the line
(require 'speech-dispatcher) |
to the Festival initialization file (typically ‘/etc/festival.scm’ system wide or ‘~/.festivalrc’ for a particular user). Note you needn't do this for Speech Dispatcher operation as Speech Dispatcher invokes this call itself.
