and middle mouse button to paste
(I got garbage when trying to download from http / browser)
restart x (not required if using icewm) and use flite test.txt from the console - where test.txt is a text file of what you want flite to say.
or direct from console
flite "A sentence to speak."

Festival
Download (11 MB): http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Science/festival.pup∞
It is 34 MB extracted on your harddisk. (If you want it on another one, move and symlink /usr/local/festival)
Then in a consolewindow type: talk "this is a test. What do you think about it?"
It uses this synthesizer: http://tcts.fpms.ac.be/synthesis/mbrola.html∞
It uses this program to convert text to phonemes: http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/∞
