.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
picospeaker [\fI\-options\fP] <\fItext\fP>
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
PicoSpeaker is a program written in Python that speaks text on its
command line or standard input using SVox Pico (\fBpico2wave\fP(1)) and
\fBsox\fP(1). Speech rate, pitch, volume and language can be specified,
and output can be saved to any file format supported by \fBsox\fP, or
sent directly to the audio device.
.SH OPTIONS
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \fB\-l\fP, \fB\-\-language\fP \fIlanguage\fP
Language to speak (default is \fIen\-US\fP). Available languages are
\fIen\-US\fP, \fIen\-GB\fP, \fIde\-DE\fP, \fIes\-ES\fP, \fIfr\-FR\fP and \fIit\-IT\fP\&. These may
be abbreviated to the two\-letter code (e.g. \fIen\fP).
.TP
.B \fB\-v\fP, \fB\-\-volume\fP \fInumber\fP
Output volume (default is 1.0).
.TP
.B \fB\-r\fP, \fB\-\-rate\fP \fInumber\fP
Rate of speech from \-90 to 9900 (default is 0). This is a percentage, offset by 100 (so \-90 is 10% original speed, 100 is 2x).
.TP
.B \fB\-p\fP, \fB\-\-pitch\fP \fInumber\fP
Voice pitch (semitones) from \-79 to 39 (default is 0).
.TP
.B \fB\-o\fP, \fB\-\-output\fP \fIfile\fP
Output to the specified file (default is sound card output).
.TP
.B \fB\-c\fP, \fB\-\-compress\fP, \fB\-q\fP, \fB\-\-quality\fP \fInumber\fP
Compression/quality level of output file, depends on file type. This option causes an error if no output file is specified.
.TP
.B \fB\-t\fP, \fB\-\-type\fP \fItype\fP
Save output file as \fItype\fP\&. Only needed if saving with a nonstandard extension. This option causes an error if no output file is specified.
.TP
.B \fB\-V\fP, \fB\-\-version\fP
Print version information.
.TP
.B \fB\-h\fP, \fB\-\-help\fP, \fB\-u\fP, \fB\-\-usage\fP
