Not really surprising actually, as the pico2wave tool doesn't provide any way to change it :) In the newer upstream speechd version, there is integrated support for pico, with speed/rate/volume support. > 3.

I'll search myself this too. Well, search in /usr/share/doc/libttspico0/copyright first :) Samuel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
