. Windows® Speech Recognition in the Microsoft Vista operating system is absolutely free. Up until now it has lacked many of the features taken for granted by users of Dragon NaturallySpeaking. We previewed the Windows™ Speech Recognition macro builder several weeks ago; and got great feedback and reviews. Since then we have made additions, renamed it the "Windows™ Speech Recognition Toolkit" as it is now more than just a macro builder. :geek: Here's the new list of features: 1. Text Macros 2. Command Macros (step by step) 3. A Macro Editor window for editing or creating script macros 4. 'Train From Text' allows you to select any text, and read it to train the 'Acoustic Model' of your speech profile 5. 'Add To Dictionary' provides an easy way to add words or phrases to your personal speech dictionary 6. 'Add From File' parses MS-Word and Text documents of your choosing for increased dictation accuracy 7. The Transcription module hears recorded (.WAV) files and transcribes to text. | The free download is good through at least August 31st. Once installed, you'll find a comprehensive User's Manual in PDF format, complete with screenshots and step-by-step instructions for each of the above functions.
