Add Tolk for Screen Reader Output #29

I'm totally blind and use the NVDA screen reader. However, Frotz doesn't automatically output text to it unless I use an NVDA add-on. The alternative is using SAPI 5 from the options screen, but this isn't ideal since I can't stop the speech on demand. If possible, please add support for Tolk, so the program can automatically output information to NVDA and other supported screen readers. This would give the user more control over many things, including speech rate, using non-SAPI voices, changing the pronunciation of words, etc. Here's the link to Tolk.

Is there any news on this? I can use the add-on for now, but I'd like native automatic speech output if possible.

Given that the README for the Tolk repository says "NOTE: this project is not currently being developed." I think it's unlikely that anything will happen to integrate with it.
