.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
flite [\fI\-options\fP] [\fItext/file\fP] [\fIwavefile\fP]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
Converts text in \fItext/file\fP to a waveform in \fIwavefile\fP\&.
.sp
If \fItext/file\fP contains a space, it is treated as a literal
text string and spoken, and not as a file name. If \fItext/file\fP
is omitted or \fB\-\fP, text will be read from standard input.
.sp
If \fIwavefile\fP is unspecified or \fBplay\fP, the result is
played on the current systems audio device.  If \fIwavefile\fP
is \fBnone\fP, the waveform is discarded (good for benchmarking).
.sp
Any other options must appear before \fItext/file\fP and/or \fIwavefile\fP\&.
.sp
The full documentation for \fBflite\fP can be read as a GNU
info file with the command \fBinfo flite\fP, or as HTML in
\fI/usr/doc/flite\-|version|/html/index.html\fP\&.
.SH OPTIONS
.\" notice the **-opt** *param* stuff? rst's option recognition
.
.\" can't handle non-GNU-style options like -option (it thinks the
.
.\" option is -o, and the ption is the parameter). So we have to help
.
.\" it out a little.
