Sharon it’s more sometimes you have to remap functions inside virtual machines. You could remap the mac keys or with in the VM say move keys around so you have a jaw key where the ` is or something similar. It’s so you can handle conflicting keys. > On Jan 9, 2016, at 10:11 PM, Sharon Hooley

An Alex add-on exists, but requires a physical Mac OS X machine to serve speech. I would think that it's perfectly legal, since you own the mac and have the rights to use the speech system, but I’m not a lawyer and don’t pretend to be one! Bill > On Jan 10, 2016, at 1:48 PM, Christopher-Mark Gi
