Add option to add pouses betewen setences :D

First, thank you for your work. I can use it on my mac : D, and that is great :)

I would love to have option to add pause between sentences.

EDIT: <{TEXT}><.>|<{TEXT}><'> produce pauses without changing the app. In a perfect world, it'd be nice to have <...> produce a pause, too..

Sorry for taking your time! I’m glad I can use that for pauses. But I’ll need a more straightforward explanation. : D Do I need to use all those symbols, an example would be great: )

How long a pause are you looking for?

Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their party Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their party. Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their party! Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their party?

I have to withdraw using a space and punction as a way to add pauses. It's worked in the past, but using it now, in the sample text above, it no longer works. Note, too, position for punction influences how Kokoro speaks. In the sample, the last sentence is read back as a simple sentence. However, put a question mark <?> after the preceding sentence, and it's read back as a question (rising voice inflection). The same is true with where an apostrophe <'> appears in a sentence. See the Kokoro HF documentation for more about how punctions is handled.

Would need a longer puse ( : when I put too many apostrophe or symbols, I got weird breathing sounds :)

You're probably dealing with how Kokoro-82M behaves.
