When a message is supplied to espeak_synth, the request is buffered and espeak_synth returns. When the message is really processed, the callback function will be repetedly called.
In RETRIEVAL mode, the callback function supplies to the calling program the audio data and an event list terminated by 0 (LIST_TERMINATED).
In PLAYBACK mode, the callback function is called as soon as an event happens.
For example suppose that the following message is supplied to espeak_Synth:
"hello, hello."
* Once processed in RETRIEVAL mode, it could lead to 3 calls of the callback function :
** Block 1:
+
List of events: SENTENCE + WORD + LIST_TERMINATED
** Block 2:
+
List of events: WORD + END + LIST_TERMINATED
** Block 3:
no audio data
List of events: MSG_TERMINATED + LIST_TERMINATED
* Once processed in PLAYBACK mode, it could lead to 5 calls of the callback function:
** SENTENCE
** WORD (call when the sounds are actually played)
** WORD
** END (call when the end of sentence is actually played.)
** MSG_TERMINATED
The MSG_TERMINATED event is the last event. It can inform the calling program to clear the user data related to the message.
So if the synthesis must be stopped, the callback function is called for each pending message with the MSG_TERMINATED event.
A MARK event indicates a element in the text.
A PLAY event indicates an element in the text, for which the calling program should play the named sound file.

text: The text to be spoken, terminated by a zero character. It may be either 8-bit characters,

of zero indicates no end position.
