Darryl,

I feel like a dumba**. Thanks for your last comment Darryl. It seems to work better with the soundfiles downloaded ;-)

I incorrectly assumed that the files were part of the Xastir package. All that was required was the "play" command and nothing else, although with a different suggestion, I did download and install sox. Now everything is working - except festival, which I still cannot get working.

Thanks,

Duffy

O.K., I've tried everything and cannot seem to get them to work. As I understand it, I have to use the play (something) command ot get it to work. Like play/usr/bin/xmms or play /usr/bin/xmms or play/xmms ...... you get the idea, I've tried about every combo.

For the cvs install try:

play /usr/local/share/xastir/sounds/newstation.wav

For a package installation try:

play /usr/share/xastir/sounds/newstation.wav

With my cvs version of xastir, running under Ubuntu, I have to substitute aplay for play.

And all of the above assumes you downloaded, and installed the .wav files in the xastir/sounds directory.
