Thank you, I will definetely check it out.
Fair enough, you do you.
For the record, no rm -r
in the script.
The only rm
command, line 394: rm "${UEBERZUG_FIFO_MAGIC_TAPE}"
Thanks, any feedback is appreciated.
piper
Indeed piper performs very well. Thank you for the input, I will most certainly consider adding the option to select tts engine in the near future, piper sounds totally worth it.
speech-dispatcher
If you are referring to locally generated speech synthesis, the respecting outcome as far as I am concerned generally sounds generally poorer, and is more difficult to manage. However you can check out the original project https://gitlab.com/christosangel/sapo, where the audio files are generated locally.
Do you mean an option to choose between various tts methods?
And, as far as
send-your-text-to-Microsoft bit
goes, well, if MS wants a copy of Brothers Karamazov, they can save themselves the trouble and get it here , it is free https://www.gutenberg.org/
I totally undersand what you are saying. Initially, the original project used local text-to-speech, but was less than perfect, slower and cpu-costly.
You can check it out here https://gitlab.com/christosangel/sapo
Once a FOSS solution gets better and more usable, swapping the tts conversion is not a great deal.
Check out basht
As a matter of fact it is one of the scripts that I cannot do without, I use it everyday, it is very convenient. But then again I wrote it myself, so I can’t be objective.
Hey, I know the guy who wrote the script, he is great.
I have never tried it. But debian based + xfce, so you know what to expect.
Sure, it is a Potatomatic 4000, 2nd edition. No, not Alacrity. Thx though.
I have no idea. On an old potato laptop I tried it on it works ok, if I rush the keys, it is flickering a little.
This is a long list of terminal goodies: https://github.com/toolleeo/cli-apps/
Also, check the games that I have written, in the same spirit as this one:
https://gitlab.com/christosangel/tui-sudoku
https://gitlab.com/christosangel/wordle
https://gitlab.com/christosangel/ladder
https://gitlab.com/christosangel/mneme
Someone should come up with a new distro with the name potatOS, just for cases like this .
I am still using the arrow keys, I must be an idiot , too. If this script helps you with the vim movements, you can check out for the same reason two or three scripts of mine, in the same repo: tui-mines, mneme,tui-sudoku.
Hey, like many bash scripts, this one is just a glorifief one-liner. But I use it everyday, I am biased, of course, but it is rather convenient, and prevents me from getting lost in rabbit holes.
