Show HN: Reader Mode – A fully cuztomizable “Reader Mode” with dyslexia support

I tweeted this tool to @Bookshare. The creator of this made an amazing tool, and should contact Bookshare.org so that the tool is featured and endorsed for people with print-related disabilities.

The only thing that this may be missing is multi-modal highlighting. As in, where the sentence is highlighted in one color and the word being read aloud is highlighted in a different color. This is a feature in Kurzweil 3000 and Voice Dream Reader.

This can be super helpful for people with print disabilities that involve vision.

But, I am definitely going to get this! I think this is the best accessibility tool I have seen on PC! :-)

Ah i see, thank you for sharing that, I will check it out!

And oh, I will be looking into the multi-modal highlighting as well and if all goes well, this will be available in the next update!

So yeah, you get it now and just update it if the new version is ready. Thank you again for your time, feedback, and for your kind words. Appreciate it! :)))
