usage: flite TEXT/FILE [WAVEFILE]
.IP
Converts text in TEXTFILE to a waveform in WAVEFILE
If text contains a space the it is treated as a literal
textstring and spoken, and not as a file name
if WAVEFILE is unspecified or "play" the result is
played on the current systems audio device.  If WAVEFILE
is "none" the waveform is discarded (good for benchmarking)
Other options must appear before these options
