NSSpeechSyntheziser is supported. There is nothing useful to mention beyond
what's in the Apple documentation for the class, hence it is not mentioned in
the API notes.
The following should work:
from Cocoa import NSSpeechSynthesizer
sp = NSSpeachSynthesizer.alloc().initWithVoice_(None) # use default voice
sp.startSpeakingString_("hello world")
You should probably ensure that the synthesizer object hangs around until it is
done speaking.
