In pseudocode:
when mouse has not been moved for at least 1 second
find cursor position
if cursor has moved
stop
find window where cursor is
if cursor has moved or no text window underneath
stop
find line of text in the window device where the cursor is
say the text
when F1 is hit
read out line already typed at open rio window
Any technical problems with this approach?
