hi Gary.
if you highlight a text in safari or anywhere, then right-click, u can make the mac speak the works that are highlighted,
but its kinda annoying for me to do these steps as i use the zoom feature all the time in a high percentage. is there any shortcut in hte keyboard to do so the mac will start speaking the highlighted text without right clicking and so on.
thanks
hsn

Go to System Preferences, Speech, Text to Speech. There you can set "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" and press the "Set Key..." button to set the keyboard shortcut.
