[Asterisk-Users] auto voice msg from text?

[Rich Adamson]

Has anyone attempted to translate short text messages into to audio
file (or something like that), and send the result to a predetermined
pbx/cell number via asterisk?

I'm thinking in terms of an external application (something like an app
that watches syslog messages) initiating a system support call to the
individual responsible for whatever system generated that syslog msg,
with some sort of option in * to dial a remote cell phone or whatever.

Think I understand the * side of that well enough to know it can be done,
but not sure about the text-to-voice app. Anyone have any ideas?
