Developer’s Description

Speak any text that is in the clipboard using Microsoft text-to-speech capability.
Intended as an aid for the visually impaired, this program uses the Microsoft text-to-speech capability to speak any text that is in the clipboard. When set up with a hotkey to run it, the user can simply select the text to be read, press control-C and then the hotkey. This is very handy for people who can see where the text is but can not read it without difficulty. As it is read, the current word is shown at the top left and more of the text is shown in the space below it with the current word highlighted.
