flite_time — a talking clock, bestie. It's built on a limited-domain voice and it will literally say the time out loud to you. No cap.

flite_time HH:MM

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Okay so picture this: flite_time is an example talking clock — a lil demo, a showcase, a moment — built on a limited-domain voice from Festival Lite. It's giving "clock that speaks," and honestly? Iconic.

💅 OPTIONS 💅

There aren't any flags here, bestie, so don't go looking for them. What you do instead is specify the time you want announced right on the command line, using the format HH:MM. That's the whole vibe. 🫶

Announce the current time — chef's kiss, so simple:

flite_time `date +%H:%M`
