You know that much work has already been done on a TTS program,
right?  It's not finished yet, though.  There have been some results
posted, I'm not sure where.  Possibly in the TWiki, which is down
(and which I need to transfer; so many things to do!).

*Wow*.

That's really not bad *at* *all*.

Can you make your perl program take test from stdin, please?  It's
utterly useless to me as is.  Make it a command line option or
something.
