NAME
speech-dispatcher - server process managing speech requests in Speech Dispatcher SYNOPSIS
speech-dispatcher [-{d|s}] [-l {1|2|3|4|5}] [-c com_method] [-S socket_path] [-p port] | [-v] | [-h] DESCRIPTION
speech-dispatcher is a server process that is responsible for transforming requests for text-to-speech output into actual speech hearable in the speakers. It arbitrates concurrent speech requests based on message priorities, and abstracts different speech synthesizers. Client programs, like screen readers or navigation software, send speech requests to speech-dispatcher using TCP protocol (with the help of client libraries). speech-dispatcher is usually started automatically by client libraries (i.e. autospawn), so you only need to run it manually if testing/debugging, or when in other explicit need for a special setup. OPTIONS
-d, --run-daemon Run as a daemon -s, --run-single Run as single application -a, --spawn Start only if autospawn is not disabled -l, --log-level Set log level (1..5) -c, --communication-method Communication method to use (unix_socket or inet_socket) -S, --socket-path Socket path to use for 'unix_socket' method (filesystem path or 'default') -p, --port Specify a port number for 'inet_socket' method -P, --pid-file Set path to pid file -C, --config-dir Set path to configuration -v, --version Report version of this program -D, --debug Output debugging information into /tmp/.speech-dispatcher -h, --help Print this info BUGS
