hello,
how can i give the used espeak by System.Speak at linux arguments?
espeak -vde “zu sprechender Text”
command = "espeak -g9 -a 30 -v+ m5" + "hello world"You can find the meaning of the parameters in the espeak documentation.

so you would use shell execute and not the speak command?

Are you using the Xojo “Speak” functions or calling speak from a Shell?
If using the Xojo Speak function, there aren’t currently any mechanisms for setting the options (maybe a feature request).
If using a Shell, you must keep in mind whether you want processing in your app to pause (blocking) or continue (non-blocking) while the speech is played. If you want your app to wait, you would use a mode=0 shell or mode=1 with a Poll loop until the espeak command completes. The polling allows your GUI to remain responsive. If you want it to be non-blocking and your app to continue processing, use a mode=1 shell.
theShell.Mode = 1
// blocking
theShell.Execute "speak -v ""en-us"" -s 125 """ + theSpeechText + """"
Do
theShell.Poll
Loop Until Not theShell.IsRunning
For non-blocking, just drop the Do … Loop.
Correct
