Should be - all of this eSpeak relative stuff is in the espeak-data
directory under bns folder, where you run the emulator from - and the !v
directory there has all the variants in it - will have a quick look at
python code, and see if it's easy enough to implement a variant as well.
Ok, and took me 30 seconds to try the following - espeak.py, after that line
5 where you can set the language, add the following line in under it:
_espeak.setVoiceAndVariant(voice=None, variant="f2")
The None value being passed for voice/language there means it gets ignored,
but, just had VMWare image using f2 female variant here now.

and is there a variants file so I could change it to variant m3 or male3
as well?

Josh, to switch that instance of eSpeak over to US english, edit espeak.py
with something like notepad, and on line 5, change the current line to:
_espeak.setVoiceByLanguage("en-us")
That makes it use US english - even switched it over to a couple of other
languages/variants now when testing.
Those languages/variants of voices match the files in the
espeak-data\voices sub-folder - under en there's a few kinds of english,
including en-us.

it doesn't really matter. with windows7 and the right pyserial and
com0com with signed drivers the windows3.1 vmware image and the virtual
braille 'n speak server I have all the dos I could ever want with the
microtalk and whatever other screen reader i want, talking through
espeak on virtual serial port com1. now if i could make the vbns server
mod its code to make espeak use its american english voice an maybe
another variant like m3?

Well josh it does not help that at least with laptops and maybe other
things pc speakers are linked with soundcards now so are vertual.
Either that or they are crappy small things because they don't have to
be.
Worse I am not sure if the new eufi systems will even run dos, they do
have speakers but they sound different notes from bios units, bios ones
usually are a with toshibas with an e chime, the eufi systems I have used
have a c chime so they are probably different.
Since eufi is not cmos
I can only assume thatt dos games will not run from it because its a
different structure.
