See: http://www.rjen.com/Macintosh/PGNTalk.html for screenshot, feature list, download link, links to complementary freeware programs and PGN download sites. I spent a lot of time beta testing for the author, and the resulting product is pretty polished. I've appended the author's description: PGNTalk is a talking chess utility. It displays games saved in Portable Game Notation (PGN) format. Among its many features, PGNTalk: * Speaks moves and game comments using any of Apple's provided voices. * Can be used as a helper application to view games from your web browser. * Supports drag-and-drop. * Is highly configurable (animate/don't animate moves, set separate delays between moves in both forward and reverse directions and for highlighting checks, hide/show game result, etc.). * Allows board diagrams to be cut and pasted into any text document as EPD or text (standard ASCII or using one of several chess fonts). * Displays move comments. * Displays the games list sorted (in either direction) by any field. * Provides keyboard shortcuts for all commonly used features. * Provides extensive balloon help. PGNTalk requires System 7.1 or later, 5 Mb of hard drive space, 4 Mb free memory (2 Mb without color), and the Apple Speech Manager extension (for speaking). $10 shareware Copyright (c)1998 by Robert Jen (mailto:rjen@rjen.com) http://www.rjen.com -- for Macintosh and PalmPilot fans http://www.rjen.com/Macintosh/PGNTalk.html - for PGNTalk utility
