spd-say plugin? #14

I'm not really sure if anyone else would find this useful, but I actually like the idea a lot. I've stumbled across a command line utility called spd-say, in a nut shell what this utility does is reads a string out loud to the user using their speakers. This would be useful for having Lauf read you a book, a sentence, or even a man page. Anyways the option are pretty much endless, I did a quick test run on my system: spd-say $(cat $HOME/lauf/lauf) and it actually read the entire script to out loud, pretty flawlessly if I might add.
