Chris done is hosting the files at http://www.jbotcan.org/jbo_test/ jbo_dictsource-20080827.tar.gz 2008-Aug-28 00:53:13 5.0K this has my modified jbo_list and jbo_rules you need to do a `speak --compile=jbo` to have the changes take effect. jbo_test.txt 2008-Aug-28 00:52:07 6.3K This is a test file used to generate the below sample sound files. jbo_test.mp3 2008-Aug-28 01:04:46 3.1M jbo_test.spx 2008-Aug-28 00:53:06 1.9M jbo_test.wav 2008-Aug-28 00:53:05 17.4M they were generated from `speak -f jbo_test.txt -v jbo -w jbo_test.wav` and then the spx and mp3 were compressed from that. It sounds a bit fast as the default is around 170 words per minute. `speak -f jbo_test.txt -v jbo -w jbo_test.wav -s 90` might be better at only about 90 words per minute. If you know how lojban is suppose to sound please give feedback. And thank you . http://espeak.sourceforge.net/
