Hi,

The only argument I've heard from some non-sighted friends about not 
using FreeBSD natively is that ooh, MacOSX is so cool. It starts 
speaking from the start if I press this and this key. Is anyone here 
working on or wanting such a feature? I mean it should be so much easier 
to text to speech our text based unicode console, than what MacOSX is 
doing, by tracking screen changes intelligently inside newcons in the 
kernel, and feeding that into a character device, that to espeak or 
whatever can read it.

--HPS
