# Writing a system service that has support for recognition of characters and a demonstration that it works by running it with Listen and Spell.
# Introduce modes in the system service. Dictation mode will process input as a stream of characters as described in deliverable 1 and a new mode called command mode will process the audio input to recognize a known set of commands.

This can be done via simple calls to the X11 Server. Here is a snippet of how that can be done.

The coding will be done in C, shell scripts and Python and recording will be done on an external computer and the compiled model will be stored on the XO. I own an XO because of my previous efforts and hence I plan to work natively on it and test the performance real time.

The recording utility will be implemented using PyGTK for UI and <code>aplay</code> and <code>arecord</code> for play and record commands.
