There are two screenreaders in the accessibility ports, e.g. /usr/ports/accessibility/yasr/ for the console and /usr/ports/accessibility/orca/ for gnome. Yasr requires a text-to-speak engine like festival. Installing a port is usually a question of going to the port directory and running 'make install clean'. From what I see in the port's pkg-message, ya= sr requires you to set up a configuration file (yasr.conf).
