So I was successfully able to setup my raspberry pi as an alexa device. Now I was wondering whether I could show Alexa's response in text as well, basically the same way http://alexa.amazon.com does it for us. Is this possible? I wouldn't want to convert alexa's response from speech tot ext because that seems wasteful since the skills are already sending the text in cards. I just don't know how to retrieve that.

FYI - I have followed this project to setup my raspberry pi for alexa https://github.com/sammachin/AlexaPi

The Sammachin AlexaPi project only receives an audio file back from Amazon's servers which it plays on the Pi. You may have more luck with the official raspberry pi Alexa app although I'm not sure if that would even output text. Good Luck! https://github.com/amzn/alexa-avs-raspberry-pi
