KMouth is a software program that empowers individuals who cannot speak to utilize their computer as a speaking tool. It is a KDE tool.
The software makes it possible for users to select frequently used phrases from the history tab and have them re-spoken with only a few mouse clicks. This feature is useful for users who rely on certain phrases in their daily communication. KMouth also allows users to add common phrases to the phrases tab to streamline communication.
KMouth does not come with a built-in speech synthesizer. Instead, the program assumes that the system has a speech synthesizer. Currently, users can choose to use any shell command specified by the user or KTTSD, which is the KDE Text-To-Speech Daemon plug-in-based project. The goal of KTTSD is to provide a standard text-to-speech interface for KDE applications and a user-friendly configuration dialog.
Overall, KMouth is a useful software program for people who cannot speak due to various reasons such as muteness or voice loss. The program's features, including word completion and a phrase book, make communication easier for users. The software requires a speech synthesizer to function, but it provides the flexibility to choose between various options like shell commands or KTTSD as a tool.
