cicero 0.7.2-3 (arm64 binary) in ubuntu wily
This Text-To-Speech (TTS) engine speaks French; a preliminary English support
is also offered.
The engine uses context-sensitive rules to produce phonemes from the text. It
relies on MBROLA to generate actual audio output from the phonemes. The TTS
engine is implemented using the Python programming language.
.
The upstream authors have come up with this TTS to try and meet their own needs
as blind users.
It's designed to be plugged as output to some screen-review software, firstly
with BRLTTY.
They favor speed and intelligibility over perfect pronunciation.
Cicero is aimed to have a quick response time, the ability to quickly shut-up
and skip to another utterance, intelligibility where it counts (not perfect
pronunciation), the ability to track speech progression, relative simplicity
(hackability) and relative small code size.
