If by native you mean working like a champ, then, I don't think there's any native SR in Linux. But there's (or was) a project sf project that has the basics: sphinx. I tried it out some years back (sphinx2), and with my crappy microphone it actually managed to recognize some words correctly ;-) http://www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/sphinx/ I haven't tried the newer versions (3 & 4). Sphinx appears now to be supported by Sun, and like everything that Sun does nowadays requires the dreaded Java(tm). > Has anyone tried Windows SR programs (like Dragon Naturally > Speaking or ViaVoice) under Wine, CrossOver Office or Win4Lin? I believe there's a "native" ViaVoice binary-only package for Linux. ViaVoice is after all by IBM. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
