This month's BYTE referenced two text to phoneme translation algorithms:
one by McIlroy (Bell Labs) as enhanced by NIH and another from the
Naval Research Lab.

I'm looking for an algorithm to go from text to phonemes for a project of
mine.  The translations can be done off-line (ie, no real-time requirement).
Does anyone have pointers to such algorithms (preferably public-domain)?

(Yes, I know Type-N-Talk will provide phonemes for its input.  Presumably
other talking systems will but I am looking for an algorithm I can use.)
