ssip: Message Priority Commands

 
 4.3 Priority Setting Commands
 =============================
 
 A speech synthesizer can't synthesize everything that comes to it, for
 the simple reason that messages are often coming faster than a synthetic
 voice can say them.  On the screen of a monitor, there is relatively a
 lot of space compared to one-channel speech synthesis output.  For this
 reason, SSIP implements a system of several priorities targeted at
 different types of messages.
 
    The idea is that the task of the programmer of a client application
 is only to assign a meaningful priority to each message and all the
 synchronization and switching between the messages (that can be coming
 from different clients) is automatically handled by the Speech Server by
 applying certain rules based on the priorities.
