This is a basic Voice Assistant example that accepts voice commands from the microphone. More info is available in issue #171.

# Run with default arguments and small model
./command -m ./models/ggml-small.en.bin -t 8

# On Raspberry Pi, use tiny or base models + "-ac 768" for better performance
./command -m ./models/ggml-tiny.en.bin -ac 768 -t 4 -c 0

# Install SDL2 on Linux
sudo apt-get install libsdl2-dev

# Install SDL2 on Mac OS
