Hello, everyone.
Following Bodhisattwa's request[1], I have added an upload feature to the
(command-line) Linux version of this tool, so it can now batch-upload the
recorded pronunciation files to Commons on your behalf.
(Ideally, it should have used OAuth, but that would take longer to
implement. :))
If you want to use the new functionality, just get the latest pronuncify.rb
script from GitHub[2], *install the new dependencies* (see the README.md
file on GitHub for instructions), and enjoy! :)
(I'd love to know if any of you are using the tool.)
Cheers,
A.

Hello, everyone.
(this is an announcement in my capacity as a volunteer.)
Inspired by a lightning talk at the recent CEE Meeting[1] by our
colleague
Lars Aronsson, I made a little command-line tool
to automate batch
recording of pronunciations of words by native speakers, for uploading to
Commons and integration into Wiktionary etc. It is called *pronuncify*,
is written in Ruby and uses the sox(1) tool, and should work on any
modern
Linux (and possibly OS X) machine. It is
available here[2], with
instructions.
I was then asked about a Windows version, and agreed to attempt one.
This
version is called *pronuncify.net
<http://pronuncify.net>*, and is a
.NET
gooey GUI version of the same tool, with slightly
different functions.
It
is available here[3], with instructions.
Both tools require word-list files in plaintext, with one word (or
phrase)
per line. Both tools name the files according to
the standard
established
in [[commons:Category:Pronunciation]], and
convert them to Ogg Vorbis
for
you, so they are ready to upload.
In the future, I may add OAuth-based direct uploading to Commons. If you
run into difficulties, please file issues on GitHub, for the appropriate
tool. Feedback is welcome.
