"mbrola" (free-beer license, closed source from academic sector) takes a
list of phonemes as input to create audio output. So you need a
language specific text-to-phonemes tool. The mbrola site has links for
those (festival, txt2pho etc.). To turn textfiles into ogg/mp3 you
would setup a chain of shell pipes like
cat textfile | txt2pho | mbrola voicefile - - | encoder
http://tcts.fpms.ac.be/synthesis/mbrola.html
Are you a noisecore person? You'd then just get rid of parts 2 and 3 of
that very chain of course.
