Festival is a text-to-speech synthesis program, which would be useful for the blind or someone with ALS like Stephen Hawking. He seems to want a speech recognition program that converts speech to text: you speak into a microphone and what you say appears on the screen. Dragon Dictate would be an example of a speech recognition program.
Actually "voice recognition" can be used to refer a third type of program mainly used in a security context. You are not interested in the content but only identifying the individual who spoke. The OP clearly didn't mean this sort of thing. Cheers, Jonathan -- Registerd Linux user #445917 at http://counter.li.org/ Please do not send me copies of list mail. I read the lists.
