Voice Control?

[Willie Walker]

Hi Bill:

Open Source dictation is a bit hard to come by.  You might take a look
at the CMU Sphinx projects:

http://cmusphinx.sourceforge.net/html/cmusphinx.php

Some of the work being done for improving dictation is being done with
the Eval Dictator project that is based upon Sphinx-4.  The work is
still underway, but there is some good promise.
