It is possible to read aloud even with the stick-reading plug-in, which is easier. But I didn't know how to prevent RT from being read aloud, so I wrote it appropriately. ~~ Actually, it would be best if it could be run on linux instead of windows ... ~~

        "voiceroid": "D:\\xxx\\xxx\\X\\VOICEROID.exe"

        "(https?|ftp)(:\/\/[-_\\.!~*\\'()a-zA-Z0-9;\/?:\\@&=\\+\\$,%#]+)": "URL omitted"
    }
}

Put the existing Config.json in the same folder as TimelineVR.py. If not at startup, the initial settings for creating Config.json will be entered.

-Added NG word, NG client, NG user ID, and NG user screen name. Write as you like in the created Config.json. By adding "RT @" to the NG word, you can prevent RT from being read aloud.

-Addition of regular expression replacement By specifying the regular expression you want to replace and the character string to replace with, You can replace the text of the tweet. In the sample, the URL is set to be read as "URL omitted".

problem

If you execute the above script, it will be read aloud, but there are some problems.

~~-Sometimes it is not read aloud (it will be improved if you re-execute) Addendum (2017-02-06): Fixed Addendum (2017-11-14): If subprocess.Popen () is used, it will move to the next process before the process is called, so it seems desirable to use subprocess.call (). Addendum (2018-06-14): The source code is totally modified.

--Many windows open (at least 3) Regarding this, windows 10 has a virtual desktop, so hopefully it will not bother me ~~ .. should be ~~

At the end ... I think it should be forcibly terminated (appropriate)

Finally

For the time being, this time is for people who just need to move. In fact, you can work while talking from TL, so the time taken by Twitter is considerably reduced. ~~ Then why not stop Twitter ...? ~~
