Commentary: Defines the TTS interface.
Automatically generated documentation for options defined in module dtk-speak. These options are customizable via Emacs' Custom interface.
List of repeating patterns to clean up. You can use command `dtk-add-cleanup-pattern' bound to C-e d a to add more patterns. Specify patterns that people use to decorate their ASCII files, and cause untold pain to the speech synthesizer.
If more than 3 consecutive occurrences of a specified pattern is found, the TTS engine replaces it with a repeat count.
*Option that specifies handling of non-printing chars. Non nil value means non printing characters should be spoken as their octal value. Set this to t to avoid a dectalk bug that makes the speech box die if it seems some accented characters in certain contexts.
*Value of speech rate increment. This determines step size used when setting speech rate via command `dtk-set-predefined-speech-rate'. Formula used is dtk-speech-rate-base + dtk-speech-rate-step*level.
List of hooks to be run after starting up the speech server. Set things like speech rate, punctuation mode etc in this hook.
