Add a way to format Dragon's dictation words using the spoken form #387
Comments
Actually, the special built-in rules I mentioned above do mostly work. They just need a bit of patching. I'll add special element classes under I'll add a special element class for dgndictation, too, for completeness' sake. |
Re: #387. This allows formatting Dragon's dictation words using the spoken form instead.
Re: #387. This allows formatting Dragon's dictation words using the spoken form instead. I've also mentioned this in the documentation of the Dictation element.
I think the new spoken_form parameter is good enough. I won't add the new element classes. |
Re: #387. This parameter is now on the base class `format()' method and has the correct name.
Dragon provides us with written and spoken forms for words. It would be nice if the spoken form of dictated words could be used sometimes. A good use case is where one wishes to type words like "period", which Dragon and Dragonfly both normally output as a dot (".").
An optional in_spoken_form parameter could be added to the appropriate formatting methods and documented.
There is actually a Dragon built-in rule for this — the dgnwords rule. Unfortunately, this rule stopped working properly some while ago, as did the dgnletters rule.
