Play Westminster Quarters / Cambridge Quarters and top of hour chimes via cron
crontab and hour.sh expect the audio files to be in $HOME/chimes/ If you place them somewhere else you will need to edit crontab and hour.sh.
The WAV files were recorded from a grandfather clock. I do not know who made the clock.
The 15, 30, and 45 just play at that time. The hour starts 1 minute early at x:59 so that the first chime strike can be at the top of the hour.

It looks like 1 big file prevents viewing the small files. crontab is 218 bytes and hour.sh is 261 bytes but both say "we can’t show files that are this big right now". Maybe that will get fixed at some point.
