Also, you can apparently use Cepstral voices with Festival through a wrapper.
http://www.cepstral.com/cgi-bin/downloads?page=other Festival Wrapper - This Perl script creates a directory called "cepstral_swift" in the current working directory for each voice directory named as an argument. When placed inside Festival's voices/ directory allows access to Cepstral Swift voices from within festival. Thanks, Steve > > I posted on the wiki how to use cepstral with weather.agi.
