Is this something you need to build for yourself when you install pgcc? It comes with a gcc_dll.a and I thought you needed to use the makefile to build OMF libraries.... I'm still not up to speed on OMF and A.OUT format libraries myself, but it may be that you haven't created any .lib files, although I never know which format is used where or when. -- John **= Email 2 ==========================** Date: Wed, 30 Jan 2002 09:37:01 +0100 From: Edwin =?iso-8859-1?Q?G=FCnthner?= Subject: Re: Compiling Perl xs code with Perl 5.6.1 on OS/2 Moin moin [or good morning], Holger Veit wrote: > Very likely a "libxyz.a vs xyz.a" issue. Try copying > xyz.a to libxyz.a in the same directory. No, that wasnt the problem (emx+gcc really takes care of this). The problem was that in lib/5.7.2/os2/Config.pm the paths were pointing to D:/emx/... I simply had to change this to fit to my system (C:/emx...) and now compiling + linking works.

I think there has not been noticeable evolution of the project since. It works in conjunction with Festival. But, as those 2 piece cannot be loaded as resident pograms, they are not very usefull (at least i,n the way I would like). Also as the text must be converted to phonems and then to wave format before being spoken, all this takes a long time.

MBROLA is still at the same level, but there has been another release of Festival. As for working together: MBROLA is just a synthesizer (but a good one compared to others). Festival is the engine that converts text into phonems. Then you have the choice to use the built-in synthesizer or MBROLA to convert to WAVE. MBROLA supports a lot more languages than Festival (English, Spanish, Welsh) BTW. Unfortunately, the port of Festival is not very stable. >But, as those 2 piece cannot be loaded as resident pograms, they are >not very usefull (at least i,n the way I would like). Festival comes with a server daemon. This should work in the background and then the client sends a "convert this for me" request to it. The client doesn't even need to be on the same machine. The only problem is that I have not been able to get this combination working. >Also as the text must be converted to phonems and then to wave format >before being spoken, all this takes a long time. Not that long on today's machines. The main delay is caused by Festival starting up and initializing. By using the server/client approach, this delay should become acceptable.

I've tried to use MBROLA to convert text to speech and it's pretty neat, although I've only managed to get it working by typing in text at the keyboard. Can't seem get the right syntax for reading from a file. As for the conversion process, surely that depends on the spec of your equipment... > On Wed, 30 Jan 2002 10:37:30 +0000, John Poltorak wrote: > > > > > > >I just came across the MBROLA Speech Synthesizer project here:- > > > >http://tcts.fpms.ac.be/synthesis/mbrola.html > > > >and it appears that OS/2 is supported, although I don't know how recent > >that support is. > > > >I don't know anything about the project myself, but some folks here may be > >interested in it... > > > > > >-- > >John > > > > > > > > > Michel SUCH - Team OS/2 France - msuch at free.fr > ICQ # 51654489 > -- John **= Email 7 ==========================** Date: Wed, 30 Jan 2002 15:22:35 -0600 From: email at eracc.hypermart.net Subject: Has anyone ported nmap? Hi all, I searched Holger's archive of the list and saw that porting nmap has been discussed. I searched at hobbes.nmsu.edu and unix.os2site.com and looked for nmap. I also checked through the file: ftp://unixos2.com/pub/unixos2/unixos2-current/Changelog.txt If it's been ported I can't find it. Is it possible to port? If so, how did you build it and get it to work? Is there an alternative to nmap available for OS/2 that will scan a range of ports above 1024? I have Ralf Christen's Portscan/2 but AFAICT it only scans ports based on the %ETC%\services file. I'd like to be able to assign a range of arbitrary ports to scan and a program that will try to find out what is running on each port and I think nmap handles that. Before I go downloading source to try to build it I'd like to see whatever has been tried so I don't waste my time. TIA.

There is also STROBE :- http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/apps/internet/util/strobe103.zip This comes with source and may be worth looking at. > I'd like to be able to assign a > range of arbitrary ports to scan and a program that will try to find > out what is running on each port and I think nmap handles that. > > Before I go downloading source to try to build it I'd like to see > whatever has been tried so I don't waste my time. TIA. I don't think you will find anything.

I couldn't find a port so far but I would appreciate any port :-) It's a *very* powerful network scanner.
