[General] Speech to text software
Hi all! Does anyone have any luck with "speech to text" software? I want to be able to dictate into a texteditor and be able to give simple commands to the OS. Is there such software for Linux? -- /Rikard --------------------------------------------------------------- Rikard Johnels email : rikjoh@norweb.se Web : http://www.rikjoh.com Mob : +46 735 05 51 01 PGP : 0x461CEE56 ---------------------------------------------------------------

More or less There is IBM ViaVoice and Sphinx that do speech recognition. Unfortunately, ViaVoice has not been developed in the past years. Still, if you want it, you can ask the Xvoice (http://xvoice.sourceforge.net/) developers on where to get VV. Or, you can study this: http://xvoice.sourceforge.net/xvoice-sphinx/ I work with sphinx for some time now and i am very happy with it, not for dictation, but for voice controlling. Josephine
