[DECtalk] DecTalk 4.99 in Linux?

[Chime Hart]

Hi All: First of all, in my Alpine addressbook I still have a J Bird address 
for this list, which I suppose is gone?
OK, so I installed version 4.99, useing the Linux instructions. After it 
needing additional packages, an installation seemed to go well. Seemingly now I 
have all these files for platforms such as windows which I am not in since 
2006. I appreciate a concept of this version, but maybe a prompt asking which 
platform we would want to install? Only once was I able to use "say" to hear 
this version-and-yes it reminds me of my old DecPC 4.61. So I want to use it 
with speech-dispatcher with Speakup. There is a script which lets you switch 
among synthesizers through speech-dispatcher-and-speakup, but I cannot figure 
out where the Linux executable is to configure among these tools. Right now 
typing spd-say followed by quoted text, I hear Allison 1 of the Voxin voices. I 
would love to try this version with Speakup, if I only knew how? Thanks so much 
in advance for any guidance
