Hiya, I'm new to this list, although not particularly new to Ubuntu. I have mobility issues that are getting worse and make typing difficult. So I have a couple questions:
1) Are there any other Dasher users out there? I've been using Dasher on MacOS and much prefer it over voice recognition (part of my condition means sometimes I slur), however when I downloaded Dasher on Karmic using the Software Center, it won't let me input to other programs, just into itself which means I have to copy/paste to really do anything useful. Is there a Linux version where I can just input directly to other programs? (I know doing so is now possible in MacOS and Windows) The help pages say "open the options menu", but I have yet to find an options menu in the Linux port and there's nothing in preferences or anywhere else I've looked. 2) Does anyone have a voice recognition solution that works on Ubuntu? I've seen the lists of "this is what's out there", but I've not seen any sort of real direction of "this is how to make it work" or anyone saying "this has worked well for me" and I don't have the time or energy to fiddle around with things. I'm also reluctant to buy Dragon and run it under Wine just because I already have bought MacSpeech Dictate for my Mac and don't have much money so am trying not to spend more. Thanks!
