Keyboard Shortcut

[jn64]

You can do it using xclip or similar tool to get selections, and assign it to a keyboard shortcut using your desktop environment.

For example using GNOME:

1. Write a script containing the following:

    larynx -v en "$(xclip -selection primary -out)"
   

2. Save it somewhere in your PATH, e.g. ~/.local/bin/tts

3. In GNOME Settings > Keyboard > Custom Shortcuts, create a new shortcut with the command tts. I have chosen Super + D as the shortcut key.

4. Now you can select text in programs such as a browser or text editor and press Super + D to read it using larynx.
