That is so cool! something like text-to-speech, but with purpose! If I
can guess, you take a script, comments get read and typed out
(displayed differently, different color maybe) while code gets
exec'ed? Or what ever you are using, its Ingenious! I was just
thinking "now that guy has to be the best typer ever!" or "how'd he
get Say to do that?" ;) Kind to have to wonder how great and so much
less painful it would be to do code reviews this way ;)

Then the next step, speech-to-text? Can almost see plugin_wiki getting
in the game! Something like Dictate or DNS, but versions that
understand and use Markmin & keywords and color codes (to mark the
difference between code & text, etc) ;)

like:

'RECORD' GREEN_USE_HEADER1 # My Title | BLUE_USE_TEXT blablablabla |
PINK_USE_CODE_PYTHON OPEN_CRAZY_QUOTE `` OPEN_WEB2PY_BRACKETS {{say
some code... CLOSE_WEB2PY_BRACKETS }} CLOSE_CRAZY_QUOTES `` |
GREEN_USE_HEADER2 ## another title | PURPLE_USE_WIDGET_SELECT, etc

I'd like to see those 2 products try to do something like that ;) LOL

Music: I agree with DenesL (i think the twins were still humming the
tune this morning) My suggestion -> Konstantin Scherbakov, maybe
Liszt's transcriptions of Beethoven symphonies for the Piano (He did
all 9, does not miss a thing and are on all fronts, perfect.) - its
the analogy: not well known, yet a master's opus! ;)
