A neat trick if you have a Mac OS X machine is to do this (make sure your speakers are turned on):

1. Open Terminal.app
2. Type in at the command line: say hello world

This will make your computer say “hello world” in the default voice (Victoria).

Here is a list of the other voices you can also use:

Female Voices

• $ say -v Agnes "hello world"
• $ say -v Kathy "hello world"
• $ say -v Princess "hello world"
• $ say -v Vicki "hello world"
• $ say -v Victoria "hello world"

Male Voices

• $ say -v Bruce "hello world"
• $ say -v Fred "hello world"
• $ say -v Junior "hello world"
• $ say -v Ralph "hello world"

Novelty Voices

• $ say -v Albert "hello world"
• $ say -v "Bad News" "hello world"
• $ say -v Bahh "hello world"
• $ say -v Bells "hello world"
• $ say -v Boing "hello world"
• $ say -v Bubbles "hello world"
• $ say -v Cellos "hello world"
• $ say -v Deranged "hello world"
• $ say -v "Good News" "hello world"
• $ say -v Hysterical "hello world"
• $ say -v "Pipe Organ" "hello world"
• $ say -v Trinoids "hello world"
• $ say -v Whisper "hello world"
• $ say -v Zarvox "hello world"

Have fun. You can now add voices to your monitoring applications, or freak people out if they don’t know about this cool trick.
