The Reading Mouse

The Reading Mouse 1.2 The Reading Mouse uses Apple's MacinTalk(tm) text-to-speech synthesis technology to read out loud ASCII text files of any size. You can use it to read electronic mail messages, articles, web pages, or entire books downloaded from the Internet because unlike SimpleText, there is no 32K limitation on how large a file you can open. You can pause the speech and resume it at any time, or skip easily from place to place in the text. You can save your place as a "bookmark", and return to the same position in the same document at a later time. The Reading Mouse will even use face files compatible with it's little sibling The Talking Mouse to create an on-screen animated character which reads to you, lip-syncing the speech generated by MacinTalk. Requires System 7.5, Speech Manager and PlainTalk installed, 800K RAM Minimum Home page at
