Usage and command line options

usage: spokennumbers [-h] [-n NUMBERS] [-p INIT_SILENCE] [-c] [-s SPEED]
                    [-d SOURCE] [-e EXCLUDE] [-o OUTPUT_FILE] [-i]

Generate spoken numbers audio files.

If no options are provided, a random 100-digit mp3 file will be created.
A text file will also be created next to the mp3 file contaning the raw
numbers (used for recall).

optional arguments:
-h, --help            show this help message and exit
-n NUMBERS, --numbers NUMBERS
                        The number of random digits to generate. Defaults to
                        100. If a text file is specified, all digits it
                        contains will be used instead (parsed by regexp).
-p INIT_SILENCE, --init-silence INIT_SILENCE
                        Add some seconds of silence in the beginning of the
                        audio file. Defaults to 3 seconds.
-c, --skip-countdown  By default, a countdown sequence will be spoken at
                        start: "3 ... 2 ... 1 ... a ... b ... c ... ...". This
                        option skips the countdown.
-s SPEED, --speed SPEED
                        The pace at which numbers will be spoken in seconds.
                        Defaults to one digit per second.
-d SOURCE, --source SOURCE
                        Audio files source. The string "default" will use the
                        default audio files included in the Python package.
                        For custom audio files, you can specify the path to a
                        directory as source. The directory must contain the
                        required audio wav files: 0.wav ... 9.wav and a.wav,
                        b.wav and c.wav.
-e EXCLUDE, --exclude EXCLUDE
                        This option is used to exclude specified digits from
                        the output. For example, if `--exclude 789` is used,
                        the digits 7, 8 and 9 will not be present in the
                        output file.
-o OUTPUT_FILE, --output-file OUTPUT_FILE
                        Name of output file. Defaults to `spoken.mp3`.
-i, --skip-txt-file   Do not create the txt file containing the spoken
                        numbers next to the audio file. The txt file is used
                        for recall.

Example:
    $ spokennumbers -n 150 --speed 1.2 -o monday_training.mp3
