NAME

       flite - A small simple speech synthesizer

SYNOPSIS

       flite [OPTION]... TEXTFILE [WAVEFILE]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents  briefly  the  flite  command.  This manual page was written for the Debian
       distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.  Instead, it has documentation  in
       /usr/share/doc/flite/

       Converts  text  in  TEXTFILE  to  a  waveform  in WAVEFILE.  If text contains a space, it is treated as a
       literal textstring and spoken, and not as a file name.  if WAVEFILE is unspecified or "play"  the  result
       is played on the current systems audio device.  If WAVEFILE is "none" the waveform is discarded (good for
       benchmarking)
