As can be seen from the description on the Chrome Store: This voice is a US English female voice, based on the open-source Pico speech engine. Therefore, it would be better to build from the Pico source. The source code is available at https://github.com/rhdunn/svox, which contains the modifications from the Debian Accessibility team. Those modifications (patches) have been applied in the https://github.com/eeejay/svox repository. I have made some code cleanups to the pico2wave program created by the Debian Accessibility team as well as adding a README.md file and improving the build scripts. If you are interested in using the Pico/Lois text-to-speech engine on Linux, you can install it on a Debian-based system or other LInux system that supports it (I haven't checked the other distributions). If you want to use Pico/Lois in a more friendly way -- like you use espeak -- you can use my Cainteoir Text-to-Speech program (https://github.com/rhdunn/cainteoir-engine, with a Gtk+-based GUI provided by https://github.com/rhdunn/cainteoir-gtk) which works with the Debian version of Pico. This also supports reading many different document formats, including HTML, ePub, RTF and PDF. NOTE: The Pico integration with Cainteoir Text-to-Speech does not currently support controlling the speech rate, pitch or volume as I haven't figured out how to control these through the SVOX API yet.
