Dear Ooo people
My daughter would like to use OpenOffice.org with Dragon Naturally
Speaking software. Dragon Naturally speaking is voice recognition
software At the moment she is using Ooo 1.0, but she would update it
immediately if this problem was fixed.
She uses voice recognition software because she cannot use her arms
very much - because of RSI developed as a result of computer usage!
She finds that OpenOffice will work insofar as straightforward
composing is concerned, but that it is difficult or impossible to
correct mistakes, to scroll up and down using her voice, and to go
back to earlier material using her voice. It would be much appreciated
if this could be added to a list of things that Ooo developers might
consider fixing at some time.
The issue is one with Dragon Naturally Speaking. It is not that OO.o
doesn't support it, but that DNS does not support OO.o. OO.o has a
freely available API which allows any third party program to be
engineered easily to work with it.
To Michael Adams, et al: If you go to Lunis Orcutt's Knowbrainer forums,
you can get all sorts of help there, and he has an add-on that will help
tremendously in OOo. I am a user of his products, in Windows, of course.
There are no usuable Voice dictation programs for any version of Linux!!
