Fix error in big-endian data conversion program, producing bad data.
Make geminated voiced stops (eg. [bb] ) longer at fast speeds.
Provide conditional compilation of the mbrola interface, define macro INCLUDE_MBROLA in speech.h
Mbrola: also look for mbrola voices in /usr/share/mbrola/voices
Pad TUNES and frame_t structures to a multiple of 4 bytes.
lang=da, Don't weaken unvoiced stops before pause.
lang=el, Remove final unstressed [a] if the next word starts with [a].
lang=pt, Change final [U] to [w] if next word starts with a vowel.
espeak 1.44.03
Fixes:
Lang=el, mk. Was speaking words as individual letters.
Lang=pl. Fix prounciation of 'ć' and 'ci'.
Fix crash in big-endian data conversion program.
Fix problem where changing voices reduces the speaking rate, at fast rates.
speak_lib.h: add macro definitions for minimum, maximum, and normal speaking rate values.

Add mbrowrap.cpp to emulate the mbrola library which is available in Windows, but not on Linux. mbrola voices in command-line espeak and libespeak now call mbrola directly rather than generating phoneme information as text. Mbrola phonemes as text is still available with the new --pho command-line option.

*_list files: added attribute $sentence.
*_rules files: added attributes $w_alt, $p_alt.
phoneme definitions: added attribute no_pause.
-X command-line option: Show the matching of multiple-word entries in *_list files.
espeakedit: Add menu option to compile the intonation data file (the data is not yet used).
Start language: Bulgarian.
lang=bg (Bulgarian): Add feature in espeakedit to make bg_listx from a lexicon of words which have stress position mark-up.
espeakedit: Change the frame-length field from Spin Control to Text Control to allow better access from screen-readers.
Language options: add an option to the Regressive Voicing option to de-voice the final consonant of words.
Don't speak "dot" if an ellipsis is followed by a dot.
Intonation: change the internal pitch unit to give finer control, and align with the values displayed in the espeakedit Prosody window.

Fix lettergroups: Sort items to longest first.
Lang en-us: Use rhotic [3] in place of [@] when [r] follows.
Voice files: add attribute "fast-test" to experiment with faster talking speeds.

Fix crash with SSML <say-as>.
Sada audio output now OK on big-endian processors.
Don't reduce the pause before doubles stop consonants (eg.Finnish "kk") as much at high speeds.
Language changes: pl (reduce length of stressed syllables, [i] closer, [f] stronger befiore [s]).

espeak_Key(key_name) If key_name is a single character, it speaks the character name. Otherwise it speaks key_name as a text string. This is the same behaviour as <say-as interpret-as="tts:key">
Fix: SAPI5 was restricted to 360 wmp. Now the top speed (390 wpm) is allowed.
Fix error in phoneme translation data for mbrola "cr1" Croation voice.
*_list files: Allow word groups which have no phoneme translation, so that just attributes can be set. The words are considered as a single hyphenated word.
Fix: $textmode in *_list files, allow replacement by a word which is also translated in the *_list file.
lang=pl: many additions to pl_rules, pl_list

Windows: Fix problem with mbrola voices stopping in Jaws screenreader.
--compile. Don't read and report faults in previous *-dict file.
Added phoneme translation for German mbrola "de6" voice.
Fix to phoneme translation for German voices.
lang=zhy. Assume word boundary between an ideagraph and an English word.
lang=pt. Update pt_rules

TranslateChar() can now substitute a character by two replacement characters.
Lang=cs, more difference between long and short vowels, less length differnence beteeen stressed and unstressed syllables.

Don't read all the voice files on start, wait until they are needed.
Added 'W' code to _rules files to mean: further letters follow while spelling a word.
Lang=fr replace [r] with [R], shorten [R] slightly
