Sparrow 1.6.3 Full
Email programs are continually evolving, adding new features and redesigning themselves to keep pace with the competition. Over time, they can find themselves bloated and over-complicated to use – after all, the main purpose of an email program is simply to read, compose and reply to email. You could, of course, collect your email through your browser using a web-based account like Gmail or Hotmail, but that’s almost too much effort too.
This is where Sparrow comes in. This program aims to give you a clean, clear and uncluttered interface for reading your mail: it displays all your mail in a single, narrow window, with all the controls you need provided as a row of buttons across the top of the window (for composing, replying, archiving and deleting) and a further row of buttons down the left-hand column for navigating and managing your inbox.
You have two options for viewing messages: you can enable the preview pane as shown in the screenshot, or double-click a message to open it in a new window if you wish to keep the interface clear and uncluttered.
A free Lite version is also available, which supports only one email account and be ad-supported.
The brand new Sparrow 1.6.3 ships with these new features/fixes:
- improved performance when loading huge conversations
- URL in subject can be clicked
- date and subject in headers can be selected
- improved avatar in message cells
- improved IMAP compatibility
- brazilian localization
- fixed progress indicator in message view
- fixed crash when loading some HTML messages
- fixed crash with POP accounts fixed
It may sport a minimalist interface, but Sparrow has all you need for streamlined email checking – only downside is that it’s currently Gmail-only.

This repository contains a simple example on how to use the Sparowhawk text-to-speech normalizer in your own C++ program.
The engine itself is available in the following repository:
Note
This example only explains how to set up and compile the C++ program using a sample language. It does not contain any information on how to create the necessary files for using it with a different language.
The program shown here is not strictly neccessary to use Sparrohawk. It merely explains the install procedure and shows how you can use it in a C++ program. To play around in Sparrowhawk, you can use the normalizer_main program included in Sparrowhawk's repository. Read this page for more details on Sparrowhawk:
While the instruction for installation is available on other sources, I would like to provide a few hints for people who are just starting out and stuck on some steps. It is recommended to install everything in a safe environemnt, like virtualenv or conda, because some of the libraries can cause issues if installed globally (eg. OpenFST may cause problems with Kaldi if installed globally).
For this document, I will be using conda, but feel free to use anything else (or install globally). You can change $CONDA_PREFIX in the description below to whatever meets your needs. To install conda, look for a script online (eg. https://conda.io/miniconda.html) and then do the following steps to create a suitable environment:
- Create tan environemnt which we will call sparrowhawk:
- Use this to activate the environment anytime you want to use this program:
(you can leave the environment using this command)
- We will store all the files in the main env directory:
- Before we can do that, we should set some environment variables:
Now you should be all set to perform the steps below.
1. Get OpenFST and Thrax
This engine relies heavily on OpenFST and the Thrax grammar compiler. These are pretty standard tools and used in many different projects. They are used to represent the rules of the language in a consistent and usable fashion. It's highly recommended to go through some examples on the OpenFST website (they're pretty fun!).
- download a fresh version of OpenFST, save and unpack:
- inside do configure, but add the prefix and some the extra modules (do
./configure --helpto see a list and install more if you want - it doesn't hurt anything):
- do
makeandmake install(no sudo neccessary in this case) -- hint, domake -j8to parallelize compiling and speed things up - download and unpack Thrax similarly to how you did OpenFST:
- do configure, just like before:
- do
makeandmake install
Once you have OpenFST and Thrax installed, you will find some useful programs and libraries in the chosen directory. Again, look for some tutorials on OpenFST and Thrax to learn what they do.
2. Install RE2
This is a pretty standard and not too big library for regular expressions. According to their instructions, you should be able to do the following:
cd $CONDA_PREFIXgit clone https://github.com/google/re2- Edit the Makefile and change the
prefixvariable to this:prefix=$(CONDA_PREFIX) cd re2makemake testmake installmake testinstall
3. Install protobuf
This is a pretty involved library that provides a communication layer (a protocol buffer) for different modules within Sparrowhawk Anyway, it's also pretty standard and you can use the instructions (from https://github.com/google/protobuf/blob/master/src/README.md) to install it:
cd $CONDA_PREFIXgit clone https://github.com/google/protobufcd protobufautogen.sh- Sometimes the commands below will complain about the wrong version of automake. Simply runautoreconfto fix this../configure --prefix=$CONDA_PREFIXmakemake checkmake install
If you get errors on the make check step, you can either skip it, or you can go into src/Makefile and remove the -Werror switch and try again. Some warnings are not that harmful, and the check should go fine, even with them in place.
4. Install Sparrowhawk
This is the actual project you need. Make sure you havemake -j your OpenFST paths set in CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS and you can run the simple, standard steps:
cd $CONDA_PREFIXgit clone https://github.com/google/sparrowhawkcd sparrowhawk- you may also need to do
autoreconfhere
- you may also need to do
./configure --prefix=$CONDA_PREFIXmakemake install
For some reason, not all include files are copied from Sparrowhawk, so it is recommended to copy them manually in order to allow this project to compile correctly: cp src/include/sparrowhawk/* $CONDA_PREFIX/include/sparrowhawk
This project was created using CLion and it uses CMake to compile the single CPP file included. If you want to use it within CLion, make sure to set the paths in CMakeLists.txt accordingly. Also, set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the proper lib directory with the Conda environment. Otherwise, simply run:
git clone https://github.com/danijel3/SparrowhawkTestcd SparrowhawkTestcmake .makecd bin./SparrowhawkTest
This simple example creates the Normalizer class and sets up the Afrikaans language grammars provided by Google. It then provides a short string to the normalize method and prints out both the input and the output:
