    Summary description: Create PDF documents with hyperlinks to audiofragments

    Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    SpeLaTeX is a new package that tries to improve the accessability
    of PDF files by equipping the PDF that is generated with LaTeX
    with hyperlinks to audio files that contain the spoken equivalent
    of the original text, equations, figures and tables.

    The spelatex package is a part of SpeLbox, consisting (next to
    the spelatex package) of an Org-mode exporter (not yet available,
    will be released soon) and a Perl module SpeL::Wizard that contains
    a script (spel-wizard.pl) to convert LaTeX constructs (including
    mathematical equations) into proper language to further convert
    it to audio files using text-to-speech software/services.
