I don't know this software at all. If you already have it, you probably
won't have any problem trying it.

Personally, I'm working with IBM ViaVoice 98 and it's just fine. I don't
even need any script. Another sighted colleague occasionnally works with
Lhernout&Hauspie software and Dragon Naturally Speaking. He is not so happy
with Lhernout&Hauspie but has good results with DNS. By reading the list, I
noticed several lister use DNS and are happy with it. But in this case, you
need plenty of memory to make it run and also some Jaws scripts which are
available on this server.
Another more personal feeling about those speech engines. It's hard to
figure out what they do with only a vocal synth. I feel much better with a
Braille display. Hope this helps. Have a nice day. Chris
