What is TellyPrompt?
TellyPrompt is a straightforward and free teleprompter Chrome extension, ideal for both single and dual-monitor setups. It allows users to paste their text into an editor window, start presenting, and control the scrolling speed. It provides full-screen display to minimize distractions and supports LTR and RTL languages. Users can also customize the font size, color, background color, and horizontal text margins on display. The extension ensures an uninterrupted presentation by blocking the mouse wheel from accidentally scrolling text.

Customizing the font-style, esp. to monospaced font would be a great feature!

Works great so far. Ability to add cue points would be a bonus. It would make it easier to skip ahead when needed.

While I'm sure this (or other paid for apps) could have a lot of other features, bells and whistles, when I need a SIMPLE TELEPROMPTER (that even allows you to save your work) TellyPrompt + Chrome is simply brilliant!
