Say something from the terminal

Siddharth - Apr 24 '21 - - Dev Community

Today I learned about the say command in macos. You use it like:

$ say something
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

It may not seem useful, but I use it when I have long scripts to run...

npm run build && say "build done"
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

...and It can also be used to do fun things...

say abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz # The impossible is possible
say dskfjkhadsfhjkasjhkfgjdasgfj 
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
