Hello,
I just wanted to experiment with speech synthesis in Squeak 4.3 All-in-one, but after an hour or so of browsing I still can't find where to enable it. I thought I'd find it in SqueakMap, but it doesn't seem to be there.
Can anyone give me a hint?
Thank you in advance,
Alex
Hi Alex,
execute this:
================ [Installer ss project: 'Speech'; install: 'SharedPool-Speech'; install: 'Speech' ] on: Error do: [:ex | (Smalltalk at: #PhonemeSet) initialize. ex resume]. ================
This will install the Speech package from http://www.squeaksource.com/Speech.html (and work around an initialization problem)
Then do
Speaker manWithHead say: 'This is my voice. Can you see my lips?'
Fun! :)
For someone with write access to the Speech repo (Dave?):
In "LipsMorph class >> initialize" add the line
PhonemeSet arpabet ifNil: [PhonemeSet initialize].
