I wasn't going to say anything about it yet, since i wanted to add the xml parser so its more accurate, but its a replacement for the python server, but also has a gui. It allows you to turn off espeak, test espeak and the preloaded voice commands. Works under any (i hope) setup ie windows maemo and linux (though its currently hardcoded to look in certain folders and might crash if its not there).

It also has the ability to change language without restarting the server. It will load all voices it finds in the cities/voices folder and under options allows changing them, so you can say commands in english, then maybe swap to greek etc.

Most importantly though, i ultimately want it to read the addresses database and hence give offline navigation. The address stuff is located in the cities folder (can't remember the full path though, will update when i get back from work). The index file sends a message to the nokia server and requests an xml of results. I've made it send the request to my app, and then it can send its own xml results, hence offline searching. (in theory ).

So if anyone knows how to read the database of addresses, I'd come out of your screen and hug you.
