SAM extension

[MagentaDude]

This is a new extension that I've been working on the past few days that implements the program SAM (Software Automatic Mouth) into TurboWarp using SamJs. It allows the user to change the speed, pitch, mouth, and throat properties of the voice, which allows for more complex voices and text-to-speech in projects. It also has a nice retro vibe to it which would be great for projects simulating computers. Let me know what you think!

Does he only know how to speak English?

[MagentaDude]

My bad. I didn't understand how to run linting and formatting, but I think I get it now. I'll try to fix all the issues ASAP.

[MagentaDude]

Alright, I fixed all of the errors.

Hi @MagentaDude SAM is a lot of fun! I forked your repo and made 3 commits that you're welcome to include or ignore:

1. added a "add [SPEECH] as a sound" block which adds the speech as a sound in the project, rather than downloading to disk.
2. slight tweak to use // global SamJs eslint setting to avoid needing to enable/disable as many lines (totally optional!)
3. This is PROBABLY overboard, but I adapted the SAM doc's Phoneme Chart into a dropdown menu to make it easier to find the right combination of letters. In particular I added IPA symbols for the sounds, so that if anyone really wanted to translate the text to other languages they could (for example, by looking up examples here, which is creative commons licensed).

@WAYLIVES SAM doesn't understand much, which is why it fits in a tiny amount of code. Supporting lots of languages would take > 2 mb for the locale data (I'm thinking mespeak). Maybe my solution in #3 is acceptable?

@lselden Those features sound great! I can't seem to find your fork though; could you provide a link?

Whoops! Yeah it's here: https://github.com/lselden/extensions/tree/sam

you should not leak SamJs to global, this is bad practice, a more indepth review will be required CC: @lselden

@MagentaDude I submitted a PR to your fork the plugs the leak, as well as including the other changes I suggested. Take from it what you will

[MagentaDude]

Looks great; I think I'll stop adding changes now 😅

that issue was fixed
