It would be great if there were a /dev/speech
Authored by: victory on Jan 10, '02 04:42:00PM

There was a nifty feature in the old AmigaDOS(!) -- a SPEAK: device. Basically anything that you redir/piped to it got spoken. Maybe Apple will consider doing something similar (such as a /dev/speech or something). That way all one would have to do is 'cat myfile.txt > /dev/speech', etc.

Nice job on the Perl script.
