a question about 9.04 and orca

2009-02-17 Thread mike
Hi, My 9.04 system is working pretty good, but I do have one problem. I enabled 
the root account and Orca. Orca comes up fine, but the alt and f1 keys don't 
seem to bring up the menus when in the root account. The same with alt and f2. 
Orca reads the desktop with the arrow keys, but the rest of the keyboard 
doesn't seem to work. Has anyone else noticed this?
Mike.

I believe it uses sapi and I suggest you take a look at the natlink project.  It
exports an interface to Dragon which I think is COM.

here are two different implementations (as far as I know) from original code 
base.

Microsoft Speech Recognition / COM interfaces

2009-02-17 Thread Tom Lloyd
Is there any millage in using the Microsoft speech recognition engine. I have 
no experience of using it but I can create the bridge from wine to linux. I 
havealready created the Text to speech element that now works in linux using 
Orca and speech dispatcher. It works quite nicely and i have had the speech 
recognition working but not trained it etc or really tried it for performance.

Possibly if there is a com method for interfacing into Dragon Naturally 
Speaking like SAPI then it will work as well. This method can work I am mid 
writing this up at the moment and doing the first release of the project so if 
people are interested you have to bear with me.. 

Tom
