I have a Windows clock that announces the time at specified intervals by playing wavs such as "It's 3:00 pm." There are lots of these for Windows, but I have not been able to find one for Linux. Does anyone know of such a program for Linux? *************************************************** Powered by SuSE Linux 7.0 Professional KMail 1.0.29.2 Bryan S.

First answer: no, I don't. Second answer: Maybe the spoken words are .wav files. If so, you could write some kind of script using the cron function that would activate the files as required. Third answer: create your own .wav files for the times required--in Windows, if necessary-- and then proceed as in answer 2. To create .wav files in Windows requires only a microphone and the OS, with its bits and pieces. If you do either the second or third, please post your (successful) result on the list! --doug At 17:01 04/14/2001 -0400, you wrote:
