Date: Sat, 4 Nov 2006 08:33:09 +0100 Hi Peter, i am also interested in the batch files. I read the voices and the langs wiki and downloaded the makevoice scripts. But i cannot generate a voice file because i only have the german language file in binary .lng format. Is there a place where i can download the source german.lang file? I read something about a perl script called genlang which should be able to convert the binary file back to text but it looks quite difficult. Thanks.
