Replace using the python package gtts to something more shell core level!

[bun137]

So currently the file take_attendance.bash uses the python package gtts to create audio files for each student and then mpg123 plays the file out.

Well the problem is that this is a shell script and sounds scam to use python in it. I did try to use espeak which is more native and you can check it out in the file attendance_taker_with_espeak.bash but the issue is that its horrible reading Indian names. Can't understand any names that espeak read out.

So I'm looking for a replacement of the python package to something more shell and lower level! Feel free to check out replacement for espeak or anything else!
