Binaries

Platform	Architecture	File
Linux	x64 (Ubuntu 24.04 ABI baseline)	omnivox-VERSION-linux-x64.tar.gz
macOS	Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4)	omnivox-VERSION-macos-arm64.tar.gz
macOS	Intel	omnivox-VERSION-macos-x64.tar.gz
Windows	x64	omnivox-VERSION-windows-x64.zip
Windows	ARM64	omnivox-VERSION-windows-arm64.zip

VERSION is the tag without its leading v; tag v1.4.1, for
example, produces filenames beginning omnivox-1.4.1-.

Linux uses eSpeak NG. macOS uses AVSpeechSynthesizer, and Windows
uses WinRT SpeechSynthesizer. Every archive also contains the
eSpeak NG runtime data generated by the matching dependency build
and its third-party notices, so the compiled eSpeak fallback works
from the extracted directory.

The Linux archive requires Ubuntu 24.04-compatible glibc,
libstdc++, libgcc, and ALSA runtime libraries.
