Describe the feature

I want the tts read the text I copied, like ctrl+c and it's automatically pronounced. Would be really cool to have.

Using a keyboard shortcut to read the selected text in a webpage is an interesting feature. The problem with the clipboard approach is that it might affect the user experience (ex. if the user only wants to copy the text). We can use a custom keyboard shortcut like CTRL + SHIFT + C

actually monitoring clipboard is of great help because of some combos you can do with it. It won't work for me personally if the text won't go through clipboard :( Maybe as an check/uncheck thing?

We can add a checkbox to enable this feature which will be disabled by default. I'll try to add it to Additional Settings for now, and if more options come up in the feature we may need to create a separate options page.

Great, sounds good!
