I think a design configuration is how do we trigger a more involved
"command" on tiddlywiki. Perhaps we should leverage the existing keyboard
shortcuts, such that either one can speak eg alt-space then the user can
assign whatever they wish in response to that, ie trigger a set of actions.
Of course in time "close tiddler" etc would be nice, but I think the key is
the escape process, so lets say one can happily dictate any thing, except
"OK TiddlyWiki" in which case rather than dictate into the current text
field a dialogue opens in which the same dictation can search for any
tiddlywiki designed terms, eg ok tiddlywiki, new tiddler (which you see on
screen).
We have a way to detect what I call the focused tiddler eg;
{{$:/HistoryList!!current-tiddler}}, for which such "ok tiddlywiki" can be
designed to use as currentTiddler.
The TiddlyWiki command plugin and others may be a short cut for us, to jump
into, to move from dictation to commands. One could imagine where the user
can assign what action or keyboard shortcut could be used as a result of
"OK tiddlywiki". Only later we could see how to get the commands recognised
in the middle of dictation, but I expect we still need this escape method.
