+flite (speech synthesis engine)
+
Flite is a small, fast run-time synthesis engine, designed for
embedded systems and servers. Flite was developed by Alan W Black and
Kevin Lenzo at Carnegie Mellon University, in Pittsburgh.
+
+Starting with version 2.0.0, flite is able to load extra voice files
+at runtime, in its own .flitevox format. If you want to include
+loadable voices in the package, download the ones you want from
+http://festvox.org/flite/packed/flite-2.0/voices/ and place them
+in the same directory as the SlackBuild. They will be installed in
+/usr/share/flite/, and can be used with the flite's -voice option.
