Hi Mohamed,
sorry for "not responding", as I said there are some problems with my
e-mails recently (some seem to be dropped silently :-s)
here is the answer I tried to send :
Hi Mohamed
here are the steps (as far as I can remember, I'm using Linux now) :
1. Download and install cygwin
2. re-run the cygwin install. it will propose a list of program to
install, I think you should at least select make, gcc and sox if they
are not already installed.
3. download htk-3.4 (and hdecode) *for linux* (not windows) and
HTS-2.1
(and hts-demo in case you want the demo)
4. unzip htk and hts in some cygwin folder (e.g. : open windows
explorer and unzip
them in c:\cygwin\home\mohamed)
5. open cygwin environment (it's a linux-like command line). Normally
it will open with /home/mohamed as its current folder (type "pwd" to
check). Then follow the step from hts install instruction (patch htk +
./configure + make + make install + the make for hdecode (the exact
command-line for hdecode is given once the first "make" succeeds)).
5.1. in case the HTS patch to htk returns some errors, you will have to
apply manually the part of the patch that didn't work (usually, it's
just a few line to change in one or two files). This is generally due
to windows.
5.2. in case the ./configure doesn't work, it's usually due to some
missing component : return to step 2 and install the missing component
6. ...
7. enjoy !

HTK-3.4 with tar.gz files
To: hts-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
patch is a GNU/linux program
In order to obtain and use it with windows you need to install either
cygwin (http://www.cygwin.com/), minGW (http://www.mingw.org/) or GNUwin32 (http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/patch.htm).

PS: I had some trouble with my e-mail lately, Mohamed did you get my
answer to your questions about "Installing HTS under windows" ?

Dear All,
I have downloaded HTK3.4 successfully and working
under windows cmd. I passed the tutorial of HTK book and every thing is
ok till now. To synthesize speech as I read so far I have downloaded
Hdecode and HTS-2.1. as they should be patched under windows or linux.
I failed patchingunder windows. I unzipped the HTS and copied all files
contained in HTS folder into the htk folder same with Hdecode i copied
the whole folder in htk. Then I have gone to windows cmd and tried
e:\HTK-3.4\htk\patch -p1
-d . < HTS-2.1_for_HTK-3.4.patch
the error was patch is
not recognized as internal or external command.
any one could help me as i
have my wave files and i want totrain HMMs and synthesize Arabic speech.
Best Regards
