I have read threads stating that pico2wave provides a better quality (although it be unclear in what respect it is "better". This is rather subjective). By the way may I suggest that you replace (or add to) espeak with its successor, espeak-ng: https://github.com/rhdunn/espeak/archive/1.49.2.tar.gz >> This is of course very useful, noticeably for visually impaired people >> who can then hear the text. > > There's also flite. Not sure if it can render to .wav files, but it'll > speak a text file. Yes it can but maybe pico2wave is also better. I will post "what is the better speech synthesizer able to record a wave file" in accessibility related mailing lists and will let you know the results. Thanks and congrats for your very good quality SlackBuilds.
