greet plays a time appropriate voice greeting and status message

greet 1.0 says 'good morning', 'good afternoon', or 'good evening' based
on the system time. A status message follows, which is determined by the
first command line argument. Useful for providing system powerup /
powerdown confirmation when visual cues such as LEDs, fan noise, or a
display might not be visible or viable sources of information. This
application was originally developed for an MP3 system in the trunk of a
car.

Comments, additions, and suggestions for further development are
welcome, and may be sent to rupe@metro.yak.net.
