Text messages are treated like print jobs. + * Jobs may be created, started, stopped, paused, resumed, and deleted. + * - Speak contents of clipboard. + * - Speak KDE notifications. + * - Plugin-based text job filtering permits substitution for misspoken words, + * abbreviations, etc., transformation of XML or XHTML to SSML, and automatic + * choice of appropriate synthesis engine. + * + * @section Requirements + * + * You may build any KDE application to use KSpeech, since the interface is in kdelibs, but + * the kdeaccessibility package must be installed for KTTS to function. + * + * You will need a speech synthesis engine, such as Festival. See the KTTS Handbook + * for the latest information on installing and configuring speech engines and voices + * with KTTS. + * + * @section goals Design Goals + * + * The KDE Text-to-Speech API is designed with the following goals: + * + * - Support the features enumerated above. + * - Plugin-based architecture for support of a wide variety of speech synthesis + * engines and drivers. + * - Permit generation of speech from the command line (or via shell scripts) + * using the KDE DCOP utilities. + * - Provide a lightweight and easily usable interface for applications to + * generate speech output. + * - Applications need not be concerned about contention over the speech device. + * - Provide limited support for speech markup languages, such as Sable, + * Java %Speech Markup Language (JSML), and %Speech Markup Meta-language (SMML). + * - Provide limited support for embedded speech markers. + * - Asynchronous to prevent system blocking. + * - Plugin-based audio architecture. Currently supports aRts but will support + * additional audio engines in the future, such as gstreamer. + * - Compatible with original %KTTSD API as developed by José Pablo Ezequiel + * "Pupeno" Fernández (avoid breaking existing applications). + * + * Architecturally, applications interface with %KTTSD, which performs queueing, + * speech job managment, plugin management and sentence parsing. %KTTSD interfaces with a + * %KTTSD speech plugin(s), which then interfaces with the speech engine(s) or driver(s). + * + @verbatim + application + ^ + | via DCOP (the KDE Text-to-Speech API) + v + kttsd + ^ + | KTTSD plugin API + v + kttsd plugin + ^ + | + v + speech engine + @endverbatim + * + * The %KTTSD Plugin API is documented in PluginConf in the kdeaccessibility module. + * + * There is a separate GUI application, called kttsmgr, for providing %KTTSD + * configuration and job management. + * + * kttsd maintains 4 types of speech output: + * - Screen Reader Output + * - Warnings + * - Messages + * - Text Jobs + * + * Method sayScreenReaderOutput speaks Screen Reader output. + * It pre-empts any other speech in progress, + * including other Screen Reader outputs, i.e., it is not a queue. + * This method is reserved for use by Screen Readers. + * + * Methods sayWarning and sayMessage place messages into the Warnings and + * Messages queues respectively. Warnings take priority over messages, which take priority + * over text jobs. Warnings and messages are spoken when the currently-speaking + * sentence of a text job is finished. + * + * setText places text into the text job queue. startText begins speaking jobs. + * When one job finishes, the next job begins. Method appendText adds + * additional parts to a text job. Within a text job, the application (and user + * via the kttsmgr GUI), may back up or advance by sentence or part, or rewind + * to the beginning. + * See jumpToTextPart and moveRelTextSentence. + * Text jobs may be paused, stopped, and resumed or deleted from the queue. + * See pauseText, stopText, resumeText, and removeText. + * + * @section cmdline DCOP Command-line Interface + * + * To create a text job to be spoken + * + @verbatim + dcop kttsd KSpeech setText <text> <talker> + @endverbatim + * + * where \<text\> is the text to be spoken, and \<talker\> is usually a language code + * such as "en", "cy", etc. + * + * Example. + * + @verbatim + dcop kttsd KSpeech setText "This is a test." "en" + @endverbatim + * + * To start speaking the text. + * + @verbatim + dcop kttsd KSpeech startText 0 + @endverbatim + * + * You can combine the setText and startText commands into a single command. + * + @verbatim + dcop kttsd KSpeech sayText <text> <talker> + @endverbatim + * + * @since KDE 3.5 + * + * To stop speaking and rewind to the beginning of the text. + * + @verbatim + dcop kttsd KSpeech stopText 0 + @endverbatim + * + * Depending upon the speech plugin used, speaking may not immediately stop. + * + * To stop and remove a text job. + * + @verbatim + dcop kttsd KSpeech removeText 0 + @endverbatim + * + * Note: For more information about talker codes, see talkers below. + * + * @section programming Calling KTTSD from a Program + * + * There are two methods of making DCOP calls from your application to %KTTSD. + * + * - Manually code them using dcopClient object. See kdebase/konqueror/kttsplugin/khtmlkttsd.cpp + * for an example. This method is recommended if you want to make a few simple calls to KTTSD. + * - Use kspeech_stub as described below. This method generates the marshalling code for you + * and is recommended for a more complex speech-enabled applications. kcmkttsmgr in the + * kdeaccessibility module is an example that uses this method. + * + * To make DCOP calls from your program using kspeech_stub, follow these steps: + * + * 1. Include kspeech_stub.h in your code. Derive an object from the KSpeech_stub interface. + * For example, suppose you are developing a KPart and want to call %KTTSD. + * Your class declaration might look like this: + * + @verbatim + #include <kspeech_stub.h> + class MyPart: public KParts::ReadOnlyPart, public KSpeech_stub { + @endverbatim + * + * 2. In your class constructor, initialize DCOPStub, giving it the sender + * "kttsd", object "KSpeech". + * + @verbatim + MyPart::MyPart(QWidget *parent, const char *name) : + KParts::ReadOnlyPart(parent, name), + DCOPStub("kttsd", "KSpeech") { + @endverbatim + * + * 3. See if KTTSD is running, and if not, start it. + * + @verbatim + DCOPClient *client = dcopClient(); + client->attach(); + if (!client->isApplicationRegistered("kttsd")) { + QString error; + if (KApplication::startServiceByDesktopName("kttsd", QStringList(), &error)) + cout << "Starting KTTSD failed with message " << error << endl; + } + @endverbatim + * + * If you want to detect if KTTSD is installed without starting it, use this code. + * + @verbatim + KTrader::OfferList offers = KTrader::self()->query("DCOP/Text-to-Speech", "Name == 'KTTSD'"); + if (offers.count() > 0) + { + // KTTSD is installed. + } + @endverbatim + * + * Typically, you would do this to hide a menu item or button if KTTSD is not installed. + * + * 4. Make calls to KTTSD in your code. + * + @verbatim + uint jobNum = setText("Hello World", "en"); + startText(jobNum); + @endverbatim + * + * 4. Add kspeech_DIR and kspeech.stub to your Makefile.am. Example: + * + @verbatim + kspeech_DIR = $(kde_includes) + libmypart_la_SOURCES = kspeech.stub + @endverbatim + * + * @section signals Signals Emitted by KTTSD + * + * %KTTSD emits a number of DCOP signals, which provide information about sentences spoken, + * text jobs started, stopped, paused, resumed, finished, or deleted and markers seen. + * In general, these signals are broadcast to any application that connects to them. + * Applications should check the appId argument to determine whether the signal belongs to + * them or not. + * + * To receive %KTTSD DCOP signals, follow these steps: + * + * 1. Include kspeechsink.h in your code. Derive an object from the KSpeechSink interface + * and declare a method for each signal you'd like to receive. For example, + * if you were coding a KPart and wanted to receive the KTTSD signal sentenceStarted: + * + @verbatim + #include <kspeechsink.h> + class MyPart: + public KParts::ReadOnlyPart, + virtual public KSpeechSink + { + protected: + ASYNC sentenceStarted(const QCString& appId, const uint jobNum, const uint seq); + @endverbatim + * + * You can combine sending and receiving in one object. + * + @verbatim + #include <kspeechsink.h> + class MyPart: + public KParts::ReadOnlyPart, + public KSpeech_stub, + virtual public KSpeechSink + { + protected: + ASYNC sentenceStarted(const QCString& appId, const uint jobNum, const uint seq); + @endverbatim + * + * See below for the signals you can declare. + * + * 2. In your class constructor, initialize DCOPObject with the name of your DCOP + * receiving object. + * + @verbatim + MyPart::MyPart(QWidget *parent, const char *name) : + KParts::ReadOnlyPart(parent, name), + DCOPObject("mypart_kspeechsink") { + @endverbatim + * + * Use any name you like. + * + * 3. Where appropriate (usually in your constructor), make sure your DCOPClient + * is registered and connect the %KTTSD DCOP signals to your declared receiving + * methods. + * + @verbatim + // Register DCOP client. + DCOPClient *client = kapp->dcopClient(); + if (!client->isRegistered()) + { + client->attach(); + client->registerAs(kapp->name()); + } + // Connect KTTSD DCOP signals to our slots. + connectDCOPSignal("kttsd", "KSpeech", + "sentenceStarted(QCString,uint,uint)", + "sentenceStarted(QCString,uint,uint)", + false); + @endverbatim + * + * Notice that the argument signatures differ slightly from the actual declarations. For + * example + * + @verbatim + ASYNC sentenceStarted(const QCString& appId, const uint jobNum, const uint seq); + @endverbatim + * + * becomes + * + @verbatim + "sentenceStarted(QCString,uint,uint)", + @endverbatim + * + * in the connectDCOPSignal call. + * + * 4. Write the definition for the received signal. Be sure to check whether the signal + * is intended for your application. + * + @verbatim + ASYNC MyPart::sentenceStarted(const QCString& appId, const uint jobNum, const uint seq) + { + // Check appId to determine if this is our signal. + if (appId != dcopClient()->appId()) return; + // Do something here. + } + @endverbatim + * + * 5. Add kspeechsink_DIR and kspeechsink.skel to your Makefile.am. Example for an app + * both sending and receiving. + * + @verbatim + kspeech_DIR = $(kde_includes) + kspeechsink_DIR = $(kde_includes) + libmypart_la_SOURCES = kspeech.stub kspeechsink.skel + @endverbatim + * + * @section talkers Talkers, Talker Codes, and Plugins + * + * Many of the methods permit you to specify a desired "talker". This + * may be a simple language code, such as "en" for English, "es" for Spanish, etc. + * Code as NULL to use the default configured talker. + * + * Within KTTSMGR, the user has the ability to configure more than one talker for each language, + * with different voices, genders, volumes, and talking speeds. + * + * Talker codes serve two functions: + * - They identify configured plugins, and + * - They provide a way for applications to specify the desired speaking attributes + * that influence the choice of plugin to speak text. + * + * A Talker Code consists of a series of XML tags and attributes. + * An example of a full Talker Code with all attributes specified is + * + * <voice lang="en" name="kal" gender="male"/> + * <prosody volume="soft" rate="fast"/> + * <kttsd synthesizer="Festival" /> + * + * (The @e voice and @e prosody tags are adapted from the W3C Speech Synthesis + * Markup Language (SSML) and Java Speech Markup Language (JSML). + * The @e kttsd tag is an extension to the SMML and JSML languages to support + * named synthesizers and text encodings.) + * %KTTS doesn't really care about the @e voice, @e prosody, and @e kttsd tags. In fact, + * they may be omitted and just the attributes specified. The example above then + * becomes + * + * lang="en" name="kal" gender="male" volume="soft" rate="fast" + * synthesizer="Festival" + * + * The attributes may be specified in any order. + * + * For clarity, the rest of the discussion + * will omit the @e voice, @e prosody, and @e kttsd tags. + * + * The attributes that make up a talker code are: + * + * - @e lang. Language code and optional country code. + * Examples: en, es, en_US, en_GB. Codes + * are case in-sensitive and hyphen (-) or underscore (_) may be + * used to separate the country code from the language code. + * - @e synthesizer. The name of the synthesizer (plugin) used to produce the speech. + * - @e gender. May be either "male", "female", or "neutral". + * - @e name. The name of the voice code. + * The choice of voice codes is synthesizer-specific. + * - @e volume. May be "loud", "medium", or "quiet". A synonym for "quiet" is + * "soft". + * - @e rate. May be "fast", "medium", or "slow". + * + * Each plugin, once it has been configured by a user in kttsmgr, returns a + * fully-specified talker code to identify itself. If the plugin supports it, + * the user may configure another instance of the plugin with a different set + * of attributes. This is the difference between a "plugin" and a "talker". + * A talker is a configured instance of a plugin. Each plugin (if it supports it) + * may be configured as multiple talkers. + * + * When the user configures %KTTSD, she configures one or more talkers and then + * places them in preferred order, top to bottom in kttsmgr. In effect, + * she specifies her preferences for each of the talkers. + * + * When applications specify a talker code, they need not (and typically do not) + * give a full specification. An example of a talker code with only some of the + * attributes specified might be + * + * lang="en" gender="female" + * + * If the talker code is not in XML attribute format, it assumed to be a @e lang + * attribute. So the talker code + * + * en + * + * is interpreted as + * + * lang="en" + * + * When a program requests a talker code in calls to setText, appendText, + * sayMessage, sayWarning, and sayScreenReaderOutput, + * %KTTSD tries to match the requested talker code to the closest matching + * configured talker. + * + * The @e lang attribute has highest priority (attempting to speak English with + * a Spanish synthesizer would likely be unintelligible). So the language + * attribute is said to have "priority". + * If an application does not specify a language attribute, a default one will be assumed. + * The rest of the attributes are said to be "preferred". If %KTTSD cannot find + * a talker with the exact preferred attributes requested, the closest matching + * talker will likely still be understandable. + * + * An application may specify that one or more of the attributes it gives in a talker + * code have priority by preceeding each priority attribute with an asterisk. + * For example, the following talker code + * + * lang="en" gender="*female" volume="soft" + * + * means that the application wants to use a talker that supports American English language + * and Female gender. If there is more than one such talker, one that supports + * Soft volume would be preferred. Notice that a talker configured as English, Male, + * and Soft volume would not be picked as long as an English Female talker is + * available. + * + * The algorithm used by %KTTSD to find a matching talker is as follows: + * + * - If language code is not specified by the application, assume default configured + * by user. The primary language code automatically has priority. + * - (Note: This is not yet implemented.) + * If there are no talkers configured in the language, %KTTSD will attempt + * to automatically configure one (see automatic configuraton discussion below) + * - The talker that matches on the most priority attributes wins. + * - If a tie, the one that matches on the most preferred attributes wins. + * - If there is still a tie, the one nearest the top of the kttsmgr display + * (first configured) will be chosen. + * + * Language codes actually consist of two parts, a language code and an optional + * country code. For example, en_GB is English (United Kingdom). The language code is + * treated as a priority attribute, but the country code (if specified) is treated + * as preferred. So for example, if an application requests the following + * talker code + * + * lang="en_GB" gender="male" volume="medium" + * + * then a talker configured as lang="en" gender="male" volume="medium" would be + * picked over one configured as lang="en_GB" gender="female" volume="soft", + * since the former matches on two preferred attributes and the latter only on the + * preferred attribute GB. An application can override this and make the country + * code priority with an asterisk. For example, + * + * lang="*en_GB" gender="male" volume="medium" + * + * To specify that American English is priority, put an asterisk in front of + * en_US, like this. + * + * lang="*en_US" gender="male" volume="medium" + * + * Here the application is indicating that a talker that speaks American English + * has priorty over one that speaks a different form of English. + * + * (Note: Not yet implemented). + * If a language code is specified, and no plugin is currently configured + * with a matching language code, %KTTSD will attempt to automatically + * load and configure a plugin to support the requested language. If + * there is no such plugin, or there is a plugin but it cannot automatically + * configure itself, %KTTSD will pick one of the configured plugins using the + * algorithm given above. + * + * Notice that %KTTSD will always pick a talker, even if it is a terrible match. + * (The principle is that something heard is better than nothing at all. If + * it sounds terrible, user will change his configuration.) + * If an attribute is absolutely mandatory -- in other words the application + * must speak with the attribute or not at all -- the application can determine if + * there are any talkers configured with the attribute by calling getTalkers, + * and if there are none, display an error message to the user. + * + * Applications can implement their own talker-matching algorithm by + * calling getTalkers, then finding the desired talker from the returned + * list. When the full talker code is passed in, %KKTSD will find an exact + * match and use the specified talker. + * + * If an application requires a configuration that user has not created, + * it should display a message to user instructing them to run kttsmgr and + * configure the desired talker. (This must be done interactively because + * plugins often need user assistance locating voice files, etc.) + * + * The above scheme is designed to balance the needs + * of applications against user preferences. Applications are given the control + * they @e might need, without unnecessarily burdening the application author. + * If you are an application author, the above discussion might seem overly + * complicated. It isn't really all that complicated. Here are rules of thumb: + * + * - It is legitimate to give a NULL (0) talker code, in which case, the user's default + * talker will be used. + * - If you know the language code, give that in the talker code, otherwise + * leave it out. + * - If there is an attribute your application @e requires for proper functioning, + * specify that with an asterisk in front of it. For example, your app might + * speak in two different voices, Male and Female. (Since your + * app requires both genders, call getTalkers to determine if both genders + * are available, and if not, advise user to configure them. Better yet, + * give the user a choice of available distinquishing attributes + * (loud/soft, fast/slow, etc.) + * - If there are other attributes you would prefer, specify those without an + * asterisk, but leave them out if it doesn't really make any difference + * to proper functioning of your application. Let the user decide them + * when they configure %KTTS. + * + * One final note about talkers. %KTTSD does talker matching for each sentence + * spoken, just before the sentence is sent to a plugin for synthesis. Therefore, + * the user can change the effective talker in mid processing of a text job by + * changing his preferences, or even deleting or adding new talkers to the configuration. + * + * @section markup Speech Markup + * + * Note: %Speech Markup is not yet fully implemented in %KTTSD. + * + * Each of the five methods for queueing text to be spoken -- sayScreenReaderOutput, + * setText, appendText, sayMessage, and sayWarning -- may contain speech markup, + * provided that the plugin the user has configured supports that markup. The markup + * languages and plugins currently supported are: + * + * - %Speech Synthesis Markup language (SSML): Festival and Hadifix. + * + * This may change in the future as synthesizers improve. + * + * Before including markup in the text sent to kttsd, the application should + * query whether the currently-configured plugin + * supports the markup language by calling supportsMarkup. + * + * It it does not support the markup, it will be stripped out of the text. + * + * @section markers Support for Markers + * + * Note: Markers are not yet implemented in %KTTSD. + * + * When using a speech markup language, such as Sable, JSML, or SSML, the application may embed + * named markers into the text. If the user's chosen speech plugin supports markers, %KTTSD + * will emit DCOP signal markerSeen when the speech engine encounters the marker. + * Depending upon the speech engine and plugin, this may occur either when the speech engine + * encounters the marker during synthesis from text to speech, or when the speech is actually + * spoken on the audio device. The calling application can call the supportsMarkers + * method to determine if the currently configured plugin supports markers or not. + * + * @section sentenceparsing Sentence Parsing + * + * Not all speech engines provide robust capabilities for stopping synthesis that is in progress. + * To compensate for this, %KTTSD parses text jobs given to it by the setText and + * appendText methods into sentences and sends the sentences to the speech + * plugin one at a time. In this way, should the user wish to stop the speech + * output, they can do so, and the worst that will happen is that the last sentence + * will be completed. This is called Sentence Boundary Detection (SBD). + * + * Sentence Boundary Detection also permits the user to rewind by sentences. + * + * The default sentence delimiter used for plain text is as follows: + * + * - A period (.), question mark (?), exclamation mark (!), colon (:), or + * semi-colon (;) followed by whitespace (including newline), or + * - Two newlines in a row separated by optional whitespace, or + * - The end of the text. + * + * When given text containing speech markup, %KTTSD automatically determines the markup type + * and parses based on the sentence semantics of the markup language. + * + * An application may change the sentence delimiter by calling setSentenceDelimiter + * prior to calling setText. Changing the delimiter does not affect other + * applications. + * + * Text given to %KTTSD via the sayWarning, sayMessage, and sayScreenReaderOutput + * methods is @e not parsed into sentences. For this reason, applications + * should @e not send long messages with these methods. + * + * Sentence Boundary Detection is implemented as a plugin SBD filter. See + * filters for more information. + * + * @section filters Filters + * + * Users may specify filters in the kttsmgr GUI. Filters are plugins that modify the text + * to be spoken or change other characteristics of jobs. Currently, the following filter plugins + * are available: + * + * - String Replacer. Permits users to substitute for mispoken words, or vocalize chat + * emoticons. + * - XML Transformer. Given a particular XML or XHTML format, permits conversion of the + * XML to SSML (Speech Synthesis Markup Language) using XSLT (XML Style Language - Transforms) + * stylesheets. + * - Talker Chooser. Permits users to redirect jobs from one configured Talker to another + * based on the contents of the job or application that sent it. + * + * Additional plugins may be available in the future. + * + * In additional to these regular filters, KTTS also implements Sentence Boundary Detection (SBD) + * as a plugin filter. See sentenceparsing for more information. + * + * Regular filters are applied to Warnings, Messages, and Text jobs. SBD filters are + * only applied to regular Text jobs; they are not applied to Warnings and Messages. Screen + * Reader Outputs are never filtered. + * + * @section authors Authors + * + * @author José Pablo Ezequiel "Pupeno" Fernández <pupeno@kde.org> + * @author Gary Cramblitt <garycramblitt@comcast.net> + * @author Olaf Schmidt <ojschmidt@kde.org> + * @author Gunnar Schmi Dt <gunnar@schmi-dt.de> + */ + +// NOTE: kspeech class is now obsolete.
