Re: [NTLK] Alarm Clock with speech?

Even more sophisticated speaking clock:

//SpeakTime
local t := HourMinute(Time();
local d := LongDateStr(Time(), @66 .abbrDateStrSpec);
local u := "The current time is: ";
local vox := "[[svox kath]]";
PlaySound(vox&u&t&", "&d&".");

When I run this just now on my MP2100 it says: "The current time is
fourteen-oh-four, Tuesday, April sixteen, two thousand and two."
