because I'm paralyzed, I use Dragon dictate to completely operate my computer. Not just email, but moving the mouse and everything.

Really?

Please tell how you change form commanding the mouse to typing in a text box. I have always been curious about how the system works.

Blazer, the system has 2 modes(dictate mode), goes into a mode that copies anything you say, just as if you were typing.

The other mode (command mode), controls your mouse. Everything from copy & paste, left click, right click, drag etc. etc.

you move your mouse cursor by saying "mouse grid", this divides your screen into 9 squares (like a tic-tac-toe) board. If you want the cursor in the top left corner of screen you would say 1, that number would divide the screen into 9 smaller squares, you would recite another number until the cursor is exactly where you want.

With any practice, you can get to 30-50 words per minute.

I figured you would know all about this. Hope you're staying healthy.
