---- **Utilities**  - DCS Simple Text-To-Speech (STTS).
---
---
--- @module Utilities.STTS
--- @image MOOSE.JPG
-
---- [DCS Enum world](https://wiki.hoggitworld.com/view/DCS_enum_world)
--- @type STTS
--- @field #string DIRECTORY Path of the SRS directory.
-
---- Simple Text-To-Speech
---
--- Version 0.4 - Compatible with SRS version 1.9.6.0+
---
--- # DCS Modification Required
---
--- You will need to edit MissionScripting.lua in DCS World/Scripts/MissionScripting.lua and remove the sanitization.
--- To do this remove all the code below the comment - the line starts "local function sanitizeModule(name)"
--- Do this without DCS running to allow mission scripts to use os functions.
---
--- *You WILL HAVE TO REAPPLY AFTER EVERY DCS UPDATE*
---
--- # USAGE:
---
--- Add this script into the mission as a DO SCRIPT or DO SCRIPT FROM FILE to initialize it
--- Make sure to edit the STTS.SRS_PORT and STTS.DIRECTORY to the correct values before adding to the mission.
--- Then its as simple as calling the correct function in LUA as a DO SCRIPT or in your own scripts.
---
--- Example calls:
---
---     STTS.TextToSpeech("Hello DCS WORLD","251","AM","1.0","SRS",2)
---
--- Arguments in order are:
---
---  * Message to say, make sure not to use a newline (\n) !
---  * Frequency in MHz
---  * Modulation - AM/FM
---  * Volume - 1.0 max, 0.5 half
---  * Name of the transmitter - ATC, RockFM etc
---  * Coalition - 0 spectator, 1 red 2 blue
---  * OPTIONAL - Vec3 Point i.e Unit.getByName("A UNIT"):getPoint() - needs Vec3 for Height! OR null if not needed
---  * OPTIONAL - Speed -10 to +10
---  * OPTIONAL - Gender male, female or neuter
---  * OPTIONAL - Culture - en-US, en-GB etc
---  * OPTIONAL - Voice - a specific voice by name. Run DCS-SR-ExternalAudio.exe with --help to get the ones you can use on the command line
---  * OPTIONAL - Google TTS - Switch to Google Text To Speech - Requires STTS.GOOGLE_CREDENTIALS path and Google project setup correctly
---
---
--- ## Example
---
--- This example will say the words "Hello DCS WORLD" on 251 MHz AM at maximum volume with a client called SRS and to the Blue coalition only
---
---     STTS.TextToSpeech("Hello DCS WORLD","251","AM","1.0","SRS",2,null,-5,"male","en-GB")
---
--- ## Example
---
--- This example will say the words "Hello DCS WORLD" on 251 MHz AM at maximum volume with a client called SRS and to the Blue coalition only centered on the position of the Unit called "A UNIT"
---
---     STTS.TextToSpeech("Hello DCS WORLD","251","AM","1.0","SRS",2,Unit.getByName("A UNIT"):getPoint(),-5,"male","en-GB")
---
--- Arguments in order are:
---
---  * FULL path to the MP3 OR OGG to play
---  * Frequency in MHz - to use multiple separate with a comma - Number of frequencies MUST match number of Modulations
---  * Modulation - AM/FM - to use multiple
---  * Volume - 1.0 max, 0.5 half
---  * Name of the transmitter - ATC, RockFM etc
---  * Coalition - 0 spectator, 1 red 2 blue
---
--- ## Example
---
--- This will play that MP3 on 255MHz AM & 31 FM at half volume with a client called "Multiple" and to Spectators only
---
---     STTS.PlayMP3("C:\\Users\\Ciaran\\Downloads\\PR-Music.mp3","255,31","AM,FM","0.5","Multiple",0)
