----------
The [eSpeak Text-to-Speech](http://espeak.sourceforge.net/) program is an open
source speech synthesizer that supports over 70 languages. It uses spectral
formant synthesis by default which sounds robotic, but can be configured to
use Klatt formant synthesis or MBROLA to give it a more natural sound.
This is a mirror of the eSpeak sources with the following improvements on the
*master* branch:
1. An autotools-based build system that supports building the phoneme data and
language dictionaries from source.
language dictionaries from source on POSIX systems.
2. Detection of the supported audio APIs via the `configure` script — no need to
modify the build files.
