![Coverage Status](https://coveralls.io/repos/pawurb/normit/badge.png?branch=master)
Normit is an easy way to translate stuff in your terminal. You can check out its Ruby gem version termit.
Installation
npm install normit -g
Usage
normit 'source_language' 'target_language' 'text'
Example:
normit en es "hey cowboy where is your horse?"
=> "Hey vaquero dónde está tu caballo?"
normit fr en "qui est votre papa?"
=> "Who's Your Daddy?"
Parenthesis are not necessary for text data input:
normit fr ru qui est votre papa
=> "Кто твой папочка?"
Speech synthesis
Specify a -t (talk) flag to use speech synthesis (requires mpg123):
normit en fr "hey cowboy where is your horse?" -t
=> "Hey cowboy où est votre cheval ?" # and a french voice says something about a horse
You can use normit as a speech synthesizer of any supported language without having to translate anything:
normit en en "hold your horses cowboy !" -t
=> "hold your horses cowboy !" # and an english voice asks you to hold on
Learning language when committing to git (zsh only)
Idea by Nedomas . See and hear your messages translated to target lang every time you commit:
In ~/.zshrc
export LANG=es
git(){[[ "$@" = commit\ -m* ]]&&normit en $LANG ${${@:$#}//./} -t;command git $@}
I am no shell ninja so if you know how to make it work in bash then please submit a PR.

Works with node 0.10.0 and higher.
