Converting text to mp3

[Linux for blind general discussion]

Well, back at the beginning of this thread, I can finally report on some 
progress. 1 of my Linux experts suggested we use an enviremnet called miniconda 
to run gtts-cli. So I followed his instructions, including for some reason I 
had to run from bash instead of my regular tcsh. Anyway I tried converting a 
book to an mp3. It created a 3hour6minute file, then gave an error 429, 
something about 2many requests to the api. Sure wouldn't mind hearing those 
Google  voices while reading in Speakup. If any1 wants a 3mb file reading 
instructions to set this up, please write off list. Thanks
