Hi.
Firstly, I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but I couldn't find anything about it, so figured I'd ask.
Is the Speech Player in ESpeak addon (found here), yet ported to Python 3 oris anyone working on this?
I really like the synthesizer, and would love to start using it again!
Thanks.

Python 3 isn't the problem. There were upstream espeak changes which made it incompatible as well, and I was told that back when they developed it initially everyone said "I'll still only use eloquence" because blind people are basically entirely resistant to speech synthesizer changes, so it got deprioritized.

In other words, probably not going to happen.

A different thing, but at least the original SpeechPlayer is back.
