To Alexandro Colorado: You are correct in a narrow sense on what I said
in my message, but Dragon, which is owned by Nuance as is Via Voice, and
Nuance is beholden to MSFT WILL never adapt it to Linux! As to the two
other products you mentioned being somewhat usable in Linux, that is the
problem, they are only OOo readers, which is a far cry from dictation
and even operating of a OS! IBM's products are not centered around Linux
as yet, and they are the ones that sold Via Voice to Nuance in the first
place! :-(

First of Dragon Is not Microsoft both are different companies. You can
write to Dragon about supporting Linux OS. Also you can pursue a
company or entity to sponsor the development of a dictation program
for Linux. At this point there are some IBM products for VoiceXML and
Voice recognition software.
There is the Orca Project and Festival which reads the content of a
document in OpenOffice.org.
