In yout `Makefile' for this directory you'll need to add the include directory where `widget.h' is, if it is not<br />
contained within the directory itself. This done through the make variable LOCAL_INCLUDES as<br />
LOCAL_INCLUDES = -I/usr/local/widget/include<br />
And for the linker you 'll need to identify where your widget library is. In your `festival/config/config'<br />
file at the end add<br />
COMPILERLIBS += -L/usr/local/widget/lib -lwidget<br />

28. API<br />
If you wish to use <strong>Festival</strong> within some other application there are a number of possible interfaces.<br />
28.1 Scheme API Programming in Scheme<br />
28.2 Shell API From Unix shell<br />
28.3 Server/client API <strong>Festival</strong> as a speech synthesis server<br />
28.4 C/C++ API Through function calls from C++.<br />
28.5 C only API Small independent C client access<br />
28.6 Java and JSAPI Sythesizing from Java<br />

28.1 Scheme API<br />
<strong>Festival</strong> includes a full programming language, Scheme (a variant of Lisp) as a powerful interface to its speech<br />
synthesis functions. Often this will be the easiest method of controlling <strong>Festival</strong>'s functionality. Even when using<br />
other API's they will ultimately depend on the Scheme interpreter.<br />
Scheme commands (as s-expressions) may be simply written in files and interpreted by <strong>Festival</strong>, either by<br />
specification as arguments on the command line, in the interactive interpreter, or through standard input as a pipe.<br />
Suppose we have a file `hello.scm' containing<br />
;; A short example file with <strong>Festival</strong> Scheme commands<br />
(voice_rab_diphone) ;; select Gordon<br />
(SayText "Hello there")<br />
(voice_don_diphone) ;; select Donovan<br />
(SayText "and hello from me")<br />
From the command interpreter we can execute the commands in this file by loading them<br />
festival> (load "hello.scm")<br />
nil<br />
Or we can execute the commands in the file directly from the shell command line<br />
unix$ festival -b hello.scm<br />
The `-b' option denotes batch operation meaning the file is loaded and then <strong>Festival</strong> will exit, without starting the
