A dyslexic friend of mine has a macintosh and would like to be able to
have text read back to him (using the MacInTalk driver, or some such).
Something like smoothtalker would work, but ideally it would be a
CDEV/INIT/DA combo that would allow him to simply select the text he
wants spoken, and choose "speak" from a DA menu (just like he can say
"check spelling" with the Coach Spelling system).

Does such a thing exist?
