Theres an application that works flawlessly for me that suits ur description
Perlbox Voice is an voice enabled application to bring your desktop under your command. With a single word, you can start your web browser, your favorite editor or whatever you want.
What you need first:
1.)Perl-Tk, the graphical toolkit for perl. This should come with your distribution, if not
Code:
sudo apt-get install perl-tk
2.)Sphinx2, the speech to text engine for Perlbox Voice.
Get the Sphinx2-bin
Code:
sudo apt-get install sphinx2-bin
3.)Festival, the text to speech engine for Perlbox Voice.
Code:
sudo apt-get install festival
After you are done with this, you can now proceed to install perlbox
Code:
sudo apt-get install perlbox-voice
