I've been preparing to home-roll a phone autoattendant with vgetty. IIRC, I created a new /opt/voice directory, changed to it, and un*tar*red *festival* there, built it there, and left it there. Then you need a symbolic link for /opt/voice/festival/bin/festival in /usr/bin and perhaps one for text2wav, as well. -- .. Chuck Rhode, Sheboygan, WI, USA .. 66F. Wind Variable 3 mph.
