[NTLK] Dashboard Script Request - Update

All,

I found the following (should have though of NewtonTalk archive first) after
pluggin away:

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&".");

The only question I have, is that currently the script abreviates the day
(ie Saturday = Sat). What change do I need to make to get it to do the
complete day name rather than an abreviation.

Thanks For the Help!

Marty

All,
 
I'm looking for a script that I can load into Dashboard so that I can use it
to speak the current date and time.
 
Can anyone help or is there a utility that already does that?
 
Thanks,
 
Marty
