Description

Maksym Bilak (#bmivzkrp), 2022-01-30 14:29:29 UTC

Neme: Fenrir
Homepage: https://github.com/chrys87/fenrir/
Why should this be included in the repository?
This software is a console screen reader. Fenrir supports various speech synthesis systems (including Speech-dispatcher), has support for scripts, and much more. Unfortunately, it does not replace Espeakup yet, so in some cases it is convenient to use Espeakup, and in some - Fenrir.
Is it Open Source?
Yes
Who and how many users do you anticipate will use this software?
This software will be used by blind users.
