A young executive was leaving the office at 6 pm when he found 
the CEO standing in front of a shredder with a piece of paper in hand. 
 
"Listen," said the CEO, "this is important, and my secretary has left. 
Can you make this thing work?"
 
"Certainly," said the young executive. He turned the machine on, 
inserted the paper, and pressed the start button.
 
"Excellent, excellent!" said the CEO as his paper disappeared inside 
the machine. "I just need one copy."

Pues hace tiempo hice un programilla en VB que reproducía el texto que le introdujeras por voz...y como ahora estoy empezando a meterme cada vez más en Python, me dio la curiosidad de si se podría hacer esto mismo en este lenguaje, y, así es, cada vez veo que hay menos cosas imposibles en Python, de lo cual me alegro

Hay que descargarse el módulo llamado pyTTS, desarrollado por un tal Peter Parente.

Recordemos que estos ejemplos de TTS usan las voces que trae Windows para muestra de voces, osea de habla inglesa...

No he probado aún este ejemplo, pero por los comentarios parece ser que funciona bien...

Os dejo el link de donde saqué el código, porque yo no soy su autor...
