Sounds like a good alternate solution for you, Hal - but one which is likely only available for proprietary operating systems produced by corporations bent on world market domination - would be speech recognition software. Read your friend's note into the computer, and have it produce typed and formatted text. I guess it'll be a few years before I can say: "Hal, why don't you look into speech recognition software for Linux as a solution to this problem?" Meantime, we can at least dream about it and identify it as a need, can't we?
James PS This presumes you've got audio-in working on your Linux box, which can be another challenge in itself. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
