Sorry to hijack the thread, butOn the topic of hardware speech
synthesizers, I was wondering if there is a program that would allow
one to use a second computer as a hardware synth. What I mean is: Say
I had two machines A and B connected via a parallel cable. Now I want
to install a distribution with a speakup enabled installation process
on machine A, is there a program I can run on machine B that reads for
example dectalk commands from the parallel or serial port an then uses
a software synth to do the actual tts. Thus, machine B emulates a
hardware synth in software.

Thanks and best regards, Lukas
