In case someone is interested, I got to this issue, while playing with
Dragon Dictate for the Mac (discontinued by the developer 6 weeks after
I purchased the license :-(-O)
It reliably crashes when trying to "activate" LyX, never mind that a few
years ago when I tried this with previous versions I could not dictate
into LyX.
So I went the markdown road and developed this workflow over a Sunday
afternoon
Dictate Markdown into TextMate
Issue regularly "Press Key Command S" and "Cache Document" :-)-O
Bash Function
call pandoc with specific template
do some editing of the LaTeX file with Perl
run tex2lyx
remove ERT with Perl
version the Markdown and LyX file(s)
Review in LyX
Save PDF or print
Now I still need to Train my Dragon to understand my Namlish and the
medical and/or IT terms I use, but it seems with a bit of self
discipline and a cheat sheet I might be onto something.
I will also experiment with Dragon on Windows in Virtual Box, which I
have for my practice software anyway, and from which I can save the
markdown file out onto the mac, so I can continue with the above
workflow.
This might actually be a solution for other people needing to generate
large amounts of text in LyX.
