[Athen] App for Dragon

[Wink Harner]

Hi all,

I hunted down this app (free) after a conversation with Patrick Burke at
UCLA yesterday. The question was about DNS commands in website
navigability. As some (many) of you know, Dragon has  spotty reliability in
command navigation in websites, specifically in Aria using the "click
next," "jump to..." [a link] commands among others. Website shows a
"button"  which should prompt a "press enter" command from Dragon, what
Dragon wants to hear is "check box." While this will not solve all the
problems with voice commands in the web environment, this little app
Patrick shared with me looks interesting. It's designed to work with Chrome
and Safari (using  DNS for the Mac) and allows the user to change the
command macros to suit, in this case, the WC3 environment. Any of you who
want to download and play with it, go for it! Do please report back and let
me/us know what you did, what worked and what didn't. Also, if you run into
Dragon bugs or suggestions, why not think about joining the Dragon
Naturally Speaking group on LinkedIn? Peter Mahoney and other developers
with Nuance are in this group and posting the questions and bugs in that
forum might end up with some development changes. Only a thought.

Happy Thursday, all.
