Text-to-Speech v1.0.0

After seeing some recommendations for a text-to-speech plugin in TW5 while releasing the Speech-to-Text plugin v1.0.5 with BTC, I took it upon myself to make my first solo plugin: text-to-speech!

How does it work?
Text-to-Speech uses the web text-to-speech API, which functions like a screen reader. To apply this to TiddlyWiki, I made a custom function calling this API, which then takes as arguments a selected area of text using cutom code I wrote!

Get Started!
To get started with the plugin, you can install by drag-and-drop from text-to-speech.finnsoftware.net! Then, anywhere in your TiddlyWiki, you can highlight text, and press the hotkey Alt+Shift+E, and listen to the plugin read the text to you!

What to Expect in the Future?

• test for foreign language support
• test support across browsers
• button in toolbar/editing
