Those are lingware, aka files to convert text to speech. This is usually done in two steps: text to phonemes (which is specific to the language: english, french, german, ...) then phonemes to sound (which is specific to voice (male/female, Isabelle, Peter, ...). There is some descriptions at <http://www.svox.com/Lingware.aspx>. I have asked upstream to clarify things at <http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/3e8283a558df2007/b06e5e2dfac0566b?lnk=gst&q=svox#b06e5e2dfac0566b> -No response yet). As I understand, those files are created from source files <http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/external/svox.git;a=tree;f=pico_resources/tools/LingwareBuilding/PicoLingware_source_files;h=f32295a2a75fee153604294ad93ab24778c5a4c0;hb=donut> by using tools in <http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/external/svox.git;a=tree;f=pico_resources/tools/LingwareBuilding/PicoLingware_tools_windows;h=89cc42d4ae1837a246386f118e76a052a0f2d9a7;hb=donut>. The lingware source files are documented at <http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/external/svox.git;a=blob;f=pico_resources/docs/SVOX_Pico_Lingware.pdf;h=111368565abba34055215baaab9ad6e466b2ce83;hb=donut>. Several problems here (taken form my mail to android-dev): - those files (tools and src) are not in the master branch - those files are outdated (2009-10-16 whereas master is 2010-01-12) - the source code of tools is not provided (but it is said MODULE_LICENSE_APACHE2) > Best regards, > Alexander Mathieu Parent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
