## OS X Notes

Agnes, Kathy, Princess, Vicki, Victoria
### Masculine Voices
Albert, Alex, Bruce, Fred, Junior, Ralph
### Miscellaneous Voices
Bad News, Bahh, Bells, Boing, Bubbles, Cellos, Deranged, Good News, Hysterical, Pipe Organ, Trinoids, Whisper, Zarvox
## Windows Notes
Voice parameter is not yet available. Uses whatever default system voice is set, ignoring voice parameter.
Speed parameter is not yet available.
The `export` method is not available.
## Linux Notes
Linux support involves the use of [Festival](http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/), which uses decidedly less friendly names for its voices. Voices for
Festival sometimes need to be installed separately - you can check which voices are available by starting up Festival in interactive mode, typing `(voice_`,
and pressing `TAB`. Then take the name of the voice you'd like to try, minus the parentheses, and pass it in to say.js.
The `export` method is not yet available.
Try the following command to install Festival as well as a default voice:
```shell
sudo apt-get install festival festvox-kallpc16k
```
## Requirements
* Mac OS X (comes with `say`)
* Linux with Festival installed
* Windows (comes with SAPI.SpVoice)
## Todo
* need to support older Node version easily. (refactoring modules)
* support other translator as well.
* bring a comparision table between translator as a suggestion
