A simple plugin for Obsidian that allows you to listen to your notes using text-to-speech.
No external apis, just uses the browser's built-in speech synthesis capabilities and your default system voices.
This plugin has been tested on Windows only.
Setup
The plugin uses your system's default languages and their text-to-speech voices. In order to add a new language, you need to install the language pack for your operating system.
For Windows, you can do this by going to Settings > Time & Language > Language, and then adding a new language.

Features
You can either select the text in your notes, right-click, and select "Speak Selected Text".

Or you can select the text and then use the hotkey combination, the default hotkey is Ctrl + Alt + S.
But you can change this in the plugin settings, along with the voice and language settings.
Beware that certain hotkey combinations may not work as they might already be used by Obsidian or by other plugins.
