This is a demonstration video for a series of macros that I have created using Dragon NaturallySpeaking, NatLink, and dragonfly. The macros are written in the Python programming language. this video is only a small taste of what kind of progress I have made with my macros. In the near future I may consider posting them on the Internet for others to use. The reason for using this is that it overcomes many of the technical limitations of the built-in scripting language that Dragon NaturallySpeaking provides out-of-the-box. This solution also provides a better way of organizing scripts.

How do you download dragonfly? I am having some difficulty.
how do you setup natlink and dragonfly for dragon 12?
Sure, the only reason I am contemplating the jump is because I have lots of
spare time to mess with it, and because I already forked over the $40 for
Windows 8 Pro. If I were serious, I would have bought Windows 7. Do you use
Speech Computing’s website? If not, where did you get the good information
about Natlink and Dragonfly not working under NaturallySpeaking 12?
Whether it matters or not… Your microphone is picking up puffing sounds.
I’m a fellow user of NaturallySpeaking and Dragonfly. We notice these
things. There are some examples on my channel. But I’m considering moving
to Windows Speech Recognition Macros, since NaturallySpeaking is giving me
a hard time in Windows 8. So, how’s it going?
I’m unsure on that. I use Dragon fly because of lot of the limitations with
the built-in scripting language in Dragon Pro.
I was definitely thinking about waiting on moving over to Windows 8
concerns of that reason. Right now I think I’m still happy with Windows 7.
Dragonfly, which is the macro system that I use can also be used with
Windows speech recognition. One problem that I’ve run across recently that
has prevented me from going to Dragon NaturallySpeaking 12 was the fact
that dragonfly is not yet compatible with it due to natlink not connecting
which is required for dragonfly to work.
Really nice work, well done mate. 🙂 Keep it up. Aha.
Using the professional version (Advanced Scripting?)… Can you hold the
mouse button down by saying “command”. Manually move the mouse. And then
release the mouse button by saying “command”? Can you say “left” so that
the mouse button is held down for about one second and then released, so
that you can click and drag stuff without manually pressing the mouse
button? We can do that stuff with Dragonfly.
thanks for the info. with dragon pro i would do a command like _loop
Alpha-zulu 0-99_ it would take 2 minutes too code and would be used many
times. 🙂
Nuance is breaking apart Natlink. I made a post about Google2Ubuntu: Google
voice recognition on Ubuntu – Extending VoiceCode, Vocola, Unimacro,
Dragonfly et al. (voice program extensions/macros/scripting) to use Google
voice recognition. It’s at the VoiceCode forums
(tech[dot]groups[dot]yahoo[dot]com/group/VoiceCoder/), and the Ubuntu
forums (Assistive Technology & Accessibility:
ubuntuforums[dot]org/forumdisplay[dot]php?f=145) It would be good to try to
get a back-up plan.
Looks cool!
By the way, I have disabilities also (partially disabled). This might help
you: **Low-cost eye tracking** youtube[dot]com/watch?v=ef0qLb8-4k8 **Gaze
Group open-source eye tracker (Eye Tribe is a spin-off of Gaze Group)** On
the Gaze Group forums, people, using the open-source software + a cheap
webcam, are posting their eye tracking setups that go as low as $40.

I am in your same situation. i have muscular dystrophy? where can i
download these add ons
I haven’t researched it, but how do you get Dragonfly to work with Windows?
Chris Butcher’s explanation is lacking IMO. I might look for a tutorial.
Problem is, and it’s a weird problem, DNS versions prior to 12 are having
trouble in Windows 8. Something to do with Adobe products like flash
player. But, like you said, version 12 doesn’t work with Natlink/Dragonfly.
I’m scoping out the possibilities for WSR macros in Windows 8. But power is
what matters, to do cool stuff, like with the mouse.
