Hi Everyone,
I use my mp3 player to listen to audio-books and I'd like to know how to make my own from ebooks using espeak. So..
I have chopped an ebook (Mary Crofts "How I clobbered every cash confiscatory agency known to man, the 1000 Papercuts Technique") into Parts and Chapters and saved them all individually as separate files, ex:
Papercuts - Part 1 - 1 - What Happened
Papercuts - Part 1 - 2 - How it happened
etc..
Now I would like to use the magic of espeak to convert the files into usable audio for my mp3 player, but I would also like to use the magic of bash scripting to convert all of them at the same time. My Bash Magic is still very limited though, so I have no clue how to do this.
Could someone please help formulate a command line that will batch convert my ebook files into mp3's, so I can keep learning new things as a I walk my little weiner dog. This will be very much appreciated.
Thanks.
