Description

YASR ("Yet Another Screen Reader") is an attempt at a lightweight, portable screen reader. It works by opening a shell in a pty and intercepting all user input/output, maintaining a window of what should be on the screen by looking at the codes and text sent to the screen. It thus uses no Linuxisms such as /dev/vcsa0 and does not necessarily need to be setuid root (the only requirement being that the user be able to access the tts device).

Message after installing

Yasr requires a text-to-speech engine to work. FreeBSD offers two: Festival
and FLite (Festival Lite). Edit the system configuration file
/usr/local/share/yasr/yasr.conf
or user configuration file ~/.yasr.conf and set "synthesizer" and
"synthesizer port".

NOTE: To use FLite requires the Emacspeak speech server eflite to be
installed.

EXAMPLES:

Festival
    synthesizer=festival
    sythesizer port=|/usr/local/bin/festival
Festival running as a server
    synthesizer=festival
    synthesizer port=127.0.0.1:1314
FLite
    synthesizer=Emacspeak server
    synthesizer port=|/usr/local/bin/eflite

See man page for more information.
