+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
+# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
+# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
+# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

+espeak: eSpeak (a compact open source software speech synthesizer)
+espeak:
+espeak: eSpeak produces good quality English speech. It uses a different
+espeak: synthesis method from other open source text to speech (TTS) engines,
+espeak: and sounds quite different. It's perhaps not as natural or "smooth",
+espeak: but some find the articulation clearer and easier to listen to for
+espeak: long periods. It can run as a command line program to speak text from
+espeak: a file or from stdin.
