Voice control

[warlorddagaz]

Is there any way of controlling gnome using voice commands - a program for this would be quite useful. Although I am not in need of one, it would be good fun to have one - does anyone know of one?

Maybe Festival? But I've never used it... so I can't tell how good it is! ^_^

As far as i know festival just reproduces written texts, but i'm not sure that it can also interpret voice entries. Could be great!

Speaking about voices... maybe you can help me with this little idea i have. Feel free to have a LOOK (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=307466)

A little search on this board turned out (among others) this thread (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=45834&highlight=voice+recognition) that might help.

I know my uncle is paralyzed from the neck down, he has been a programmer longer than I've been alive, using the eraser end of a pencil to punch in a character one at a time. Something like that would be amazing.
