[TUHS] Reviving the Research Unix speak(6) program

[Diomidis Spinellis]

Happy new year to all!

Over the holidays I found some time to port the recovered version of 
speak(6) to modern Unix systems and make its output compatible with the 
espeak system.  The resulting sound is barely intelligible.  I assume 
this is due to the imperfect matching between the speak and espeak 
phonemes.  The process's details are available at 
https://www.spinellis.gr/blog/20210102#tu and the code at 
https://github.com/dspinellis/speak.
