Huh?

Linux doesn't have a standard built in speech synthesiser. What would you
suggest speaks the words? Or is that a load of having wavey stuff that is

There are many know-how there. Yes, your doubt is confirmed that you are id=
iot.

Speech synthesisers existed in the 70s in the Speak and Spell toy, whats
your point? Its quite clear you don't even understand the problem.

A clue for you. The two-state buzzer can be programmed to simulate analog s=

(bad quality) You know C/C++ does not mean you can really do programming.

"Duh, I can make sound, duh, C++ should just make sound, duh"

Its not 1985 any more idiot with you writing 16 bit real mode assembler
sending I/O to a PC speaker from DOS. You can't just talk to the sound
hardware direct with Windows, Mac and Linux, it has to do through the OS and
that requires configuration and setup in the program requiring access,
something you're apparently completely unaware of. The same applies to
graphics. Now why don't you go find a time machine, come forward 40 years to
2025 then get yourself a clue.
