audio text reader

Are you looking for a text-to-speech screenreader, or something that will play back prerecorded audio books? Where are you getting the audio books?

I;m looking for a text to speech reader and I'm getting the books from torrents

This will work. Thank You

The Ubuntu Text Reader can read any text that you paste into it and you can customize it with different voices.

You can download the latest version at:

I installed text reader on a netbook using UNR karmic and a laptop using ubuntu karmic. IT works fine on the netbook but fails on the laptop. Running it from terminal on the laptop gives:
administrator@JohnLaptop:~$ python /usr/share/textreader/textreader
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/textreader/textreader", line 7, in <module>
    import wx.richtext as rt
ImportError: No module named richtext

Python version is 2.6.4 (found by running python in terminal).

richtext.py is in /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode/wx but not /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/wx-2.6-gtk2-unicode/wx. Is this significant? BTW on the netbook, richtext.py is in /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/wx-2.6-gtk2-unicode/wx but there is no /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode/wx directory.

I have no knowledge of python. So any help needs to be clearly explained. Thank you.

PS /usr/share/textreader/textreader's first few lines are:
#!/usr/bin/python

#Text Reader
import wx
import os
import tl
import wx.richtext as rt
