[arm-allstar] Working on wx scripts for bbb allstar, need sugguests

I am working on porting over one of  my weather report scripts that uses
Google text to speech (tts) for the BBB Allstar node.  I want to do this
correctly with keeping the files namespace in mind.

Currently, I am using for the script and sound locations:
     /var/lib/asterisk/wxrtp_ug
     /var/lib/sounds/wx/report_ug


I have the script working but I am to install the asterisk-addons-1.4.13 in
order to play the mp3 file generated.  This worked, but the mp3 volume is a
bit on the low side.  I was thinking about using SOX to convert from mp3 to
ulaw instead. Not sure which direction to go. Any opinions?


Also, is the namespace above is acceptable?

(plus I wanted to test the new list :) )

If interested, the weather script reports the current weather conditions
using local Underground  wx.  It reports:

Weather report for The Landings On The Crow ,  St Michael .
Last Updated on May 29, 9:42 AM CDT,
the wind was blowing at a speed of 5.8 miles per hour from South
with wind gusts up to 8.1 miles per hour.
The temperature was 71.1 degrees with a dewpoint of 24.0 degrees.
The pressure was  at 30.08 inches of mercury.
The relative humidity was 17 percent.



Cheers,

Chris, w0anm
