Hi all. As a long-time user of both Windows and the mac, I keep wondering why eSpeak hasn't been ported to work with voiceover and the mac speech API. If Eloquence can be ported, why on earth can't eSpeak, being open source and a native linux program, be ported? Is Eloquence just that good, and mac users so into windows that Eloquence, a native windows app, just has to b ported, in a rather weird form with only one voice and a few weird bugs, rather than eSpeak, with its many languages, amazing pronounciation and configurability? And I don't want just a "type text and push that there play button and hear it talk" little toy app. I want it to be selectable in the VO speech pane of the utility, as a system voice, and usable in the say fuction of the terminal. Is that really, really too much to ask for of an open source program? If so, then open source is just as unreliable as regular freeware.
