<h3>2.1.2 Use with KDE Text-to-Speech (KTTS)</h3>
To add to KDE-Text-to-Speech Manager (KTTSMgr), use it as a "Command" talker
with "command for speaking texts" set to:<br>
<strong>cat %f | espeak --stdin -w %w -v en -s190</strong>
<p>
In this example, "en" is the voice name, "190" is the speed.
<p>
Note:
<ul>
<li>When used by the KTTS system, I noticed a slight background hiss with the speech, which is not present when I use <strong>espeak</strong> directly from the command line. This was because KDE sound default was set to "8 bits" rather than 16 bits.<p>
<li>KTTSMgr breaks the text into sentences to pass to the speech engine, but it mistakenly assumes sentence breaks when dots follow abbreviations and therefore pauses after the dots in "eg. Mr. John B. Smith etc." Speaking a text file directly with <strong>espeak</strong> gives better results in this respect.
