Version 0.4 (for macOS 13.5.2 Ventura)

by Shyamal Suhana Chandra, shyamalc@gmail.com


Purpose: This bash script for MacOS is used to convert a selectable screenshot of the macOS desktop into speech synthesis inside a command line prompt with batch processed speaking using mplayer.


Prequisites:

  1. Install pip.
  2. Please install Homebrew with the following command: /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)".
  3. Please do a brew install tesseract.
  4. Please do a brew install mplayer.
  5. Download the screenshot2speech: git clone https://github.com/shyamalschandra/screenshot2speech
  6. Go to System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> Privacy -> Screen Recording -> Add the Terminal with the checkbox on.

Also, do a chmod +x screenshot2speech.sh before running.

Example command:

./screenshot2speech.sh

Note: All the files will be placed in the Downloads directory. Please allow the Terminal to access the Downloads folder when asked by MacOS.
