During Pairing Prompt, Mycroft should read URL with "dot" where periods are present about mycroft-core HOT 10 CLOSED

@jdorleans, @clusterfudge I can't find in the code where it reads out "cerberus.mycroft.ai" - can you point me at the right place?

@ryanleesipes I think that would be https://github.com/MycroftAI/mycroft-core/blob/master/mycroft/skills/cerberus_config/__init__.py#L41 ,

Those emit a message that the speech file picks up in https://github.com/MycroftAI/mycroft-core/blob/master/mycroft/client/speech/main.py#L59 , which in turn passes it off to the execute method on a tts from https://github.com/MycroftAI/mycroft-core/tree/master/mycroft/tts

Giving this to @jdorleans

Should anything with a period and no space be read as "dot"? For instance, what about right before speaking with mimic, regex replace "([^,. ]).([^,. ])" with "$1 dot $2"?

@Wolfgange3311999 yes, I think that would be good.

@Wolfgange3311999 do you have any idea of how to make this happen? If so I can reassign this to you.

Guys, let's not change that behaviour in mimic. The char . must be a real pause, that's the way it is on a natural language. That said, there is a simpler way of solving that problem. I'll fix that.

@jdorleans: we should probably add something to the docs about when to use phonetic spelling (like 'dot') in spoken text.

@Cliabhach you're right. We do still have much information to add on our docs and some of them are not very easy to identify until they appear as an issue. I'll take care of some of them and add on our docs.

#91 has been Merged, closing this issue. However, I do think we may want to move to using "dot" in Mimic for instances when there aren't spaces between words/numbers on both sides of a period.
