A nice enhancement for the system is having TTS read out the currently selected text, triggered by a key shortcut. I tried festival and it too complicated and my version was too to run the better voices model. Instead I've used this repo to use upgraded flite: https://github.com/kastnerkyle/hmm_tts_build/ https://github.com/kastnerkyle/hmm_tts_build/ I have mapped keyboard shortcuts Win+1 for normal speed, Win+2 for faster and Win+3 for really fast reading speed. I can use it while reading, to enhance my focus. Neat.
