This is a wonderful parser, I absolutely love it. It's trivial to use, and requires no setup.
I did have some concerns and my AV complained about the 21 VirusTotal detections which seem to be python-packing related false positives.
However I have a question - I have run nparse.exe twice in the past days and it always phones home to 2605:de00:1:1:4a:2:0:d2 which is GoDaddy... What's this about? I blocked it in my firewall for now.
Cheers again for the parser!

Damn GoDaddy took over

When you load nParse it makes a request to my API for the version information. This way, I can let people know when a new version is out. You should be able to turn this behaviour off if you go to settings and turn off update checking. Here is the relevant code from the master branch (the source of the current Executable release):
The call: https://github.com/nomns/nparse/blob.../nparse.py#L25
The function: https://github.com/nomns/nparse/blob..._init__.py#L11
You can even visit the link yourself and see what it gives:
http://nparse.nomns.com/info/version
Also, I will let you know now that in the new version, I will be using gTTS --
https://github.com/pndurette/gTTS. This makes a call to Google's text-to-speech API and returns an mp3. I don't want to use this, but I can't currently find a cross-platform, self-contained library for providing text-to-speech.
