Point & Speak: highlight it, Ctrl + Right-click it, hear it.

Select text in any application — browser, PDF, editor, chat — and Ctrl + Right-click to have ROAR read it aloud instantly. One gesture, no menu, no extra click. The same gesture while it's speaking stops it.

  • Any app, one pass — uses ROAR's privacy-hardened selection capture and the local Kokoro voice. Nothing leaves your machine.
  • Plain right-click is untouched — ROAR only observes the modifier'd click and always passes it through, so every app's own menu still works exactly as before.
  • Off by default — turn it on in Settings → Read Aloud → Point & Speak (requires Read Aloud to be enabled).
  • Windows can't expose selections in administrator-elevated windows; those give a calm "no selection" notice.

Everything from v0.25.0 (Teach ROAR corrections, Read Aloud with GPU) carries over, as do your settings, history and licence.
