Exit status of $SELF is that of pico2wave.

Examples:

  $SELF 'Hello world.'
    Speaks "Hello world" in the default language (en-US)

  $SELF -l en-GB 'Hello world.'
    As above, in a British accent.

  fortune -s | $SELF
    Reads from standard input.

  $SELF < /etc/motd
    Speak a text file. Don't forget the < or it says the filename instead.
