Pytts engine property #21

Closed greg-martinez44 closed 2 months ago

greg-martinez44 commented 2 months ago

I wasn't able to run the script on my WSL environment. To write the user guide on the docs page, I needed to make some adjustments to make it run on linux & MacOS.

I made the BACK_END_TTS variable dependent on the system's operating system.

I also made some updates to the language dictionary keys to make them compatible with pyttsx3. The documentation for pyttsx3 also doesn't have voice_edge as a valid property of the engine; I updated to voice.

I tested the txt2audio on MacOS and it ran fine. I tested txt2audio, pptx2audio, and ebook2audio on WSL. Those ran, but ebook2audio and pptx2audio hung at the end.
