This repository contains a snapshot of Mark Lillibridge's voice control infrastructure circa November 2016.
Its contents are currently completely uncurated; I hope later to clean up pieces and publish them in other open source repositories. The contents include:
-
New Vocola 2 extensions (interfacing to AutoHotkey, switching between windows, changing window status, generating regular expressions for symbol matching, etc.).
-
A new major Vocola mode for Emacs that provides syntax coloring.
-
Code for making Emacs and xterms work correctly with Dragon's correction code and sending non-ASCII characters code.
-
A lot of other code to enable or enhance voice control:
- 10,000 lines of Vocola code, providing thousands of voice commands
- over 1000 "new" vocabulary words, some with formatting properties
- code for generating DNS and Vocola lists numbers, URLs from Firefox, emails extracted from Outlook and LDAP, directories and files from filesystem scans, email folders
- elisp code (elisp is the language Emacs uses) including:
- changes to ace-jump to implement fast on-screen jumps
- line numbers modulo 100
- leap, which allows moving to the next occurrence of a pattern intelligently
- elastic space, which types a space only if there is not already one there
- Vi's start-word
- selected code templates
- moving by fragments of camel case words (e.g., Case in CamelCaseWord)
- AutoHotkey scripts for: relocating correct that dialogue, volume control, killing Firefox plug-in containers, asynchronous message display
- driving Dragon's vocabulary GUI to import words and their properties
- converting English descriptions of identifiers to identifiers (e.g., "monster memory map" -> "mmap")
- VBA macros for Excel, Word (moving charts, moving by sane word boundaries)
- moving by sane word boundaries by "peeking" at application text by the clipboard
- logging of utterances, analysis therein
- generating a corpus of words from my email and papers for writing analysis
- keeping commands and vocabularies synchronized across multiple machines
- converting browser bookmark list to a webpage of accelerators
