Description

TalkBox application (http://haikuware.com/directory/view-details/multimedia/audio/utilities/talkbox) doesn't run on hrev36930, while it's been reported to run on Haiku alpha 1.
Running it from Terminal with 'beoscompatibility' installed showed up possible useful info, but only the very first time, so I missed it and can't add it here...

TalkBox comes with a bundled Festival which hardcodes paths to various things, making it difficult to run on a current system. Writing a recipe for a current version of Festival and packaging it would solve at least part of the problem: http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/

the TalkBox itself is just an xicon script, so it can be modified with a text editor if it needs to be fixed. Same for ChangeVoices. They both use the "saytext" command from festival to actually do things.

(In #2871) There is no binary there, it's just an xicon script. Closing as duplicate of #6176, a better port of Festival is needed, or this could easily be modified to use espeak instead.
