Emacspeak discussion list

[Otto Diesenbacher-Reinmüller <okflo AT diesenbacher.net>]

hi, at first let me thank T.V. and all contributors for this great
piece of software!  Being already a heavy emacs user, before having
the need for an audio desktop, emacspeak was the logical solution for
me.

Unfortunately I am currently struggeling getting voxin / outloud to
run with emacspeak.

starting outloud (in emacspeak/servers) results in:

./outloud
Using SoX
19No language foundtts
    while executing
"load $tclTTS/atcleci.so"
    (file "./outloud" line 451)

(I got emacspeak working with espeak and also dtk-soft, but as I am a
native german speaker, I would prefer outload/voxin with a german
voice for german texts).

steps to reproduce:
- OS: archlinux, but also tried current ubuntu, same result
- get current emacs via git and compile & install
- I obtained from voxin.oralux.org the following languages:
  - voxin-american-english-allison-compact-3.4
  - voxin-american-english-allison-high-3.4
  - voxin-german-petra-ml-high-3.4
  - installed them.
  - voxin seems to be installed correctly, as calling voxin-say
    directly in the shell works. Also orca works, and shows the
    installed voice-packages.
- checkout emacspeak via git and get all depended stuff and built it,
  also doing make in servers/linux-outloud

I also tried the installer from
https://github.com/Oralux/emacspeak_voxin_install with same result.

Digging into atcleci.cpp with my limited cpp-knowledge, that the call
to initLanguage(interp, aLanguages, nLanguages); always results in
NODEFINEDCODESET, despite nLanguages gets the correct result of 3
languages installed.

Many thanks for any hints!

best regards - okflo
