> Voice input for tasks like writing has been “solved” for at least twenty years now, you just need to get your software set up to use it. So, where is the Linux writeup on how to do this? The last time I tried to put my control keys on a footpad, it was a pain in the ass. The issue was you couldn't send a modifier from one HID device and a key event from a different one and have the OS pick them up and combine them. So, you had to get a special keyboard with a special footpad that you plugged into the special input on the keyboard. I'd love to do a hybrid of voice/keyboard but I haven't seen any good writeups. I don't need everything on voice, but it would be nice to get some of the things that cause me to move my hands in the most contorted ways to be better. Hell, just putting scrolling on voice would be a big win given all the web "progressive scrolling" shittiness seems to require you to scrub the hell out of the scroll wheel nowadays.
