These are some DragonDictate macros which I find help speed up
the editing process, and are useful for other things. I find
that these shortcuts really help me speed up editing of mistakes
and increase my throughput on the system.
The oops macros are numbered by the
number of words which they move you backwards in the list of words
appearing in word history. The oops macros are easier than saying
"oops" and "word #" to move around since you
bundled that into a single utterance.
The suffix macros are for speeding
up correction of misrecognition of like sounding words with different
suffix endings (I.e. talk, talked, talking, etc.), you would
use them in place of the Edit command. While this solution doesn't
automatically identify the root of the word it does work faster
than using edit and back space commands by rolling them into a
single utterance. It works along the lines of [Suffix M N] where
M is the word in the choice list, and N is the number of spaces
to move backwards.
I also have some system global macros
for useful things which aren't included with DragonDictate.
For users of the Eudora mail reader program I have some Eudora specific macros.
To use these macros place each of the following groups of text
in a file (save them from Netscape as a text file not an html
file) but make sure you use notepad to edit it since other editors
add characters to the file which might corrupt it. Then open
vocabulary manager and from the vocabulary pull down menu, choose
import and give it the file name you have assigned to the file.
If it puts up a warning message about merging this vocabulary
with existing vocabulary groups that is ok.
