Hello,
I have written 5 bash scripts which implement play, pause, resume andd
stop reading any text selected with the cursor. The programs used are
MPV player, xclip, socat and espeak-ng. Can I post to this list the
scripts and additional comments (in a text file) t? The scripts work
pretty well with keyboard shortcuts, but I would like to get feedback.
I would also like help or suggestions implementing a more human
sounding voice using Piper. Piper is not available on any opensuse
repository and I was not yet successfull implementing it. Some people
have suggested using Orca, but I have tried and tried to get this
specific functionality with Orca and repeatedly failed. And these
scripts are much, much simpler than using orca since I am visually
impaired but not blind and I do not need a screen reader.
Ultimately, what I would like to do is post this Jovie replacement
somewhere where it can help other KDE users. Maybe this list is not the
best place for my current request, but I could not find a better place.
Thanks in advance, Gustav.
