Re: Speech in BBEDit

Wow, I never noticed that before. Is that because of lingering non-Cocoa 
modules?

P.S. I think it's the window title that it says, not the name of the file.

Well here we are a year later.

Still BBedit speaks only the file name still.

Thanks for the suggested scripts.

But it is puzzling that such a polished piece of software with such a 
mentally diverse user base would not include this capacity that is growing 
in popularity.

Did I miss a fix or further discussion?

Cheers,
Chuck

It's a setting in the Speech System Preference. You can set a hot key. Works in 
practically everything except BBEdit (I just tried it).

This is odd, because I seem to recall that it DID work before, no?

Or, more simply:

tell application "BBEdit" to say "" & selection
-- selected text only

tell application "BBEdit" to say (get text in front document)
-- whole text

Just out of curiosity and from one "for ever" user to another, have either of 
you filed a bug report by sending an email to supp...@barebones.com? If so, 
have you received a reply?

I've been unable to find the ‘speak selected text’ menu item…

Re: Speech in BBEDit

[chuck3342b]

I have not seen a follow up on this lone aging question.

In my case I am using BBedit 10.5.5 on macosx 10.8.4.

I have this same issue.  I trust there is a poorly documented work-around.

Since I have used BBedit for ever and have recently taken to speech-to-text 
because it is now well supported by the macosx, I am frustrated that I 
can't get BBedit to speak anything but the file name.

Thanks for any help.

Cheers, 
CHL
