To use this:

- Install festival and speechd.

    http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/
    http://www.speechio.org/speechd.html

  Gentoo users can just "emerge festival speechd".

- Install the 32-bit ut2004 linux demo.
- Replace /where/i/installed/ut2004demo/System/ut2004-bin with this one.
- Edit your ~/.ut2004demo/System/UT2004.ini file. In the "[SDLDrv.SDLClient]"
   section, add:

      TextToSpeechFile=/dev/speech

- Make sure speechd is running, and start the game.
- To make sure it works, pull down the console and type:

   TTS this is a test.

  ...if you didn't hear something that sounds like "This is a test," something
  is broken, and you're on your own.

- Otherwise, IRC chat will start talking; be careful about entering really
  crowded chatrooms, and beware of people saying offensive things. Ideallly,
  you use this in a private chatroom while playing the game, so you can hear
  what people are "saying" while your eyes are otherwise occupied in-game.

- Bug reports go to https://bugzilla.icculus.org/ ... if your sound card
  won't let both speechd and ut2004 have the sound card at the same time,
  sorry, that's not a bug.

Have fun,
