Does anyone know how to make a plugin 'speak' some text? Much like the option available in the Action dialog boxes... except I want to build it all into one action that does some stuff, speaks the text, and then does some other stuff -- so I need to know how to 'speak' in Python (and also wait until the speaking is done).

Thanks!

indigo.server.speak("Hello World", waitUntilDone=True)

Perfect. On a related note, I'm looking for some documentation somewhere on using variables in strings or text fields. I think I needed to do something to my code to be able to handle this if I'm not mistaken.

I've been searching around for a while now and can't remember where it is. Can you point me to that?

(Basically, I have a text field, and I want users to be able to put a variable in it too...)

Check out the substituteVariable() method described in the plugin.py section of the Developer's Guide (in the last table in that section).
