[Emacspeak] Re: Emacspeak and Mac OS

Here's what I just did to get it working, from scratch, on a mac that 
has never had emacspeak installed.
First, I ran brew uninstall python3 to remove Python 3.
To make sure it's completely gone, I ran rm -rf 
/opt/homebrew/lib/python3.9 (this directory will differ depending on 
what Python version and where your homebrew is).
1. brew install python3
This installed Python 3.9.
2. which python3 -- for me, returns /opt/homebrew/bin/python3
3. pip3 --version -- returns the correct pip for Python 3.9
After cloning emacspeak:
4. python3 servers/mac -- returns ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 
'Foundation'
5. pip3 install pyobjc -- installs a bunch of stuff
6. python3 servers/mac -- talks, and the server works.
