Can you use the NVDA Voice Addons on Linux/Ubuntu?

Question

There are a bunch of voice addons here, and I'd like to use them on Ubuntu/Linux to read text documents, in the way where I would give it a text document or a string of text, and it would generate an audio file I can play in rhythmbox.

Is there a way to do this? I don't mind using wine.

Unfortunately, NVDA isn't listed in Wine AppDB. It means that untested on Wine yet.

But, you can try one of this for Linux.

gSpeech is a simple Python, GTK+ front end for the command line application pico2wave from the GNU/Linux SVOX Pico implementation.
