tspreed is a terminal-based RSVP speed reader with Spritz-like functionality written in POSIX-compliant shell.
The script reads plain text piped into it and presents it one word at time.
The presentation starts with the first word displayed for a minimum of 1 second, then all subsequent words are presented at the given speed (WPM).
If tspreed is terminated before the presentation has finished, the progress of the presentation is passed to stdout.
This is free and open source software.
