Working on OSX and linux. Windows is currently untested and likely unsupported.\n\nFlite is super tiny and fast and works great on ARM (eg, robots!), and has a variety of voices available (which are compiled into the binary - you probably want to build it yourself).\n\n## example\n\n    var flite = require('flite')\n\n    var message = \"you know what we need? some more waffles!\"\n\n    flite(function (err, speech) {\n      if (err) { return console.error(err) }\n      speech.say(message, function (err) {\n        if (err) { return console.error(err) }\n        /// make sure to have your sound on :)\n      });\n    });\n\n## usage\n\n    var flite = require('flite')\n    flite([config], callback)\n\n - config object (optional)\n - callback: function (err, speech) - initializes and returns a speech object\n\nconfig is an object with any of the following keys\n\n - voice: string - the name of a voice\n - ssml: boolean - treat input as [ssml](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speech_Synthesis_Markup_Language)\n\n\n`speech.voices // array`\n\n  array of valid voice names to use with the `voice` configuration setting.\n\n\n`speech.config(configObj)`\n\n  set configuration settings for this instance of `speech`\n\n`speech.say(text, [fileout], callback)`\n\n  speak the given input string `text`. if `fileout` is specified, the wavefile will be writen to that file and not to the speakers. if `fileout` is omitted, the wavefile will be played immediately. `callback` is invoked after the wavefile is written or the sound is done playing.\n\n## license\n\nMIT.
