November 22, 2009

pyttsx is a cross-platform text-to-speech package for Python. It has a simple API for producing speech, setting some basic engine properties, and getting start/stop/word callbacks. pyttsx currently supports SAPI5, NSSpeechSynthesizer, and espeak, but it can be extended to support other engines and libraries.

The project BSD licensed and hosted on ~~Launchpad~~ GitHub. PyPI tracks downloads for the latest stable version and ReadTheDocs handles the documentation.
