I looked in my notes of things that I might need to 
know. I have never tested this, but perhaps man will 
tell you more, or maybe you could pipe the output to 
another program, if this only outputs to wav, or you 
could have a script convert the output, perhaps.

Anyway, this is what I noted for future reference:

"To have the output recorded to a file, text2wave 
file.txt -o audiofile.wav."

I hope this helps.
