I realize speech typing and security are somewhat antithetic, but at this 
point, I don't have a choice.  I've tried different options, and 
talonvoice seems to be a good solution. It's a speech recognition engine 
with a python REPL. Problem is, I cannot get it to work effectively on Qubes.

Please note that I've been using qubes for over two years, but I'm only 
a user. I can modify configuration files, but I'm no systems engineer and 
have little to no programming chops.

My best approach entails installing talon and its speech recognition to every 
vm. Then, I have an instance of it running for every vm and I manually detach 
and attach the microphone to each vm every time I switch vms. The two main 
problems are:
- since it isn't running on dom0, and there is no gui-vm yet, I have no 
window switching control.
- it forces me to make extensive use of my arms for all the attaching and 
detaching and for every window switching. that is too much for my situation.

I dislike the idea, but have tried installing it on dom0. That doesn't work 
because dom0's version of glibc (2.24), zlib (1.2.8) and CXXABI 
(libstdc++.so.6) are too old; talon requires 2.25, 1.2.9 and CXXABI_1.3.11 at a 
minimum.


If you can help, be it with a solution to the above or a different approach, 
I'll really appreciate it.
