Hi, I'm trying to found out if Loquendo Speech Engine can work with
Ktts. Loquendo TTS comes with a java based GUI and the command line
TTSFileGenerator tool, see below. Any help is very appreciated

Regards Joakim

Multilingual Text-To-Speech Synthesis System.

This program opens a text file and converts each line of text into a
soundfile.
Each input line can contain either an ASCII message, or the name of an
ASCII/UNICODE file on disk (-n option). Supported output formats are:
Microsoft Windows PCM ("wav"), raw data ("raw" or "pcm") and Windows
Media Audio ("asf" or "wma" - Windows only).
If no input file is given, the program reads from standard input.
Output file name can be optionally given in the form of a "prefix" (that
is the
first part of the output filename). The program will append a progressive
counter and the appropriate file extension (.wav, .raw, etc.). If no
prefix is
given, the output file name will be automatically generated.

Usage: ./TTSFileGenerator [options]... [parameters]

        Options:
-h /* Shows usage */
-q /* Quiet mode: no output */
-n /* Each line of the input file is a the name of a text file to read */
-v <Speaker name (default: Ludoviko)>
-l <Language (default: Speaker's mother tongue)>
-c <Speech Coding (a=PCM A-law, u=PCM u-law, l=PCM linear [default])>
-f <Speech Sample Rate (default: 32000Hz)>
-s <Number of audio channels (1:mono, 2:stereo, default:1)>
-o <Output file prefix: [=filename]>

        Parameters:
