Re: Dummy speech driver

[Bill Haneman <Bill Haneman Sun COM>]

Hi Pedro:

While I think this has been suggested before, I think that it is a good 
idea; especially if it's designed to allow sending the output to a named 
pipe, serial port, or perhaps even convert to HTTP and send output that 
way.  It would allow more ways to debug the speech output itself.  If 
you need help creating such a speech driver, let me or Will Walker know 
and I'll try to send comments.

Best regards,

Bill
