The solution was to change:
"-L/usr/demo/SOUND"
to: "-L/usr/demo/SOUND/lib"
I still had a problem compiling after this change, and I like to give
special thanks to Casper Dik <casper@holland.Sun.COM>, for his
patience, and for providing the solution which was to add:
"-lc /usr/ucblib/libucb.a"
to the end of the "LIBS=" line in the Makefile.
Several people asked where they could get the speak program, and the
answer is: ftp://wilma.cs.brown.edu/pub/speak.tar.Z
However, even after I compiled it, the program wouldn't run
properly. After all, it was written 6 years ago. So I wrote John
Bazik, since he wrote the program and explained my problem, and this
was his response:
1) it was a hack - it never worked that well to begin with (it concatenates
prerecorded phonemes to produce speech, an imperfect approach).
2) it was developed under sunos 4.1 and the sun audio device interfaces
has long since changed. It will not compile as-is.
3) if you did manage to get it compiled and working, you would simply
type english sentences at it - scat simply reads stdin and
translates it into sound. The -d option is to point it to
the prerecorded phonemes - it should come with a complete set.
Finally, I would like to say thanks to all who responded:
