Writing to text to an external processes.

[WJG]

At the moment I'm using espeak on my Linux box to readaloud single lines. The line of my code to achieve this is:

set pid [exec espeak -a $a -s $s -b $b -m [list $t] &]

But, espeak has a --stdin to read aloud words entered at the console. How can I do this? How do I write a string out to this process.

Thanks.

Look up the open and fileevent commands on the Wiki or in the man pages.
This will allow you to open a (two-way) connection to an external process,
rather than simply start a process and wait for the completion.

Thanks Arjen

Got the open command working, just fileevent to go!
