haven't used it by myself, but I think QProcess is what you are looking for.

I meant to update this thread today.
I tried system("espeak 'Hello shep'") and that seemed to work. I don't know how though!

You could make use of the various signals that QProcess generate and also fork a process etc.
If all you want to do is execute a script and wait till it finished you can use the C++ system() function and you should be fine.

I'd love to see an example of how to call QProcess and activate ESpeak via the command line. I did try last night, but couldn't follow the docs....and when system() worked so easily I have to admit I didn't pursue it any further.

is there a build of xsel.. i want to pipe selected text to espeak
I'd like to use espeak to announce things in my app, but I dunno how to go about calling it from QT?
I have looked through the QT APIs and I cannot see something that allows interaction with the command line, but I imagine I'm way wrong
Any ideas?
