Linux support involves the use of Festival, which uses decidedly less friendly names for its voices. Voices for
Festival sometimes need to be installed separately - you can check which voices are available by starting up Festival in interactive mode, typing (voice_,
and pressing TAB. Then take the name of the voice you'd like to try, minus the parentheses, and pass it in to say.js.
