Description

Instead of having to use pre-recorded greetings, I think it would be great if we could specify a script for the computer voice to use when "greeting" callers.

There's obviously text somewhere in the code which tells the voice what to speak. And we can override parts of it like using "city or town" instead of the default "city or county." So, I'm suggesting the ability to override the default text/speech.

A great case for this would be the initial language selection greeting for systems that are configured to support multiple languages. We're supporting English and Spanish and, without a pre-recorded greeting, the system just welcomes callers with "For English press 1, para español presione dōs." It would be great to not have to record a custom greeting but rather just input text somewhere so the computer voice could say "Thank you for calling the [whatever service body]. For English press 1... " or some variation or whatever the service body wants.

Since there are some places in the system where we can't replace the computer voice with a pre-recorded greeting, this would allow for consistent computer voice everywhere but using custom greetings.

Just an idea.
