hi,

Do any libraries exist that allow me to use the Apple Speech recognition
hardware under LinuxPPC?

Sorry, there is no hardware (aside from a simple digitizer to capture
the sound of course).  Apple's speech recognition is 100% software.

The original implementation on 68K Macs used an AT&T DSP coprocessor
to do the crunching because the 68K didn't have enough oomph to do it
by itself, but the PowerPC implementation relies on nothing but the
CPU.

	on the off chance that you can get sound input
	to work under LinuxPPC (i have a pimiso pb so it cant AFAIK)
	try checking on freshmeat.  There are a few programs
	that can do voice control.  One of them is called voicecontrol
	i think.

	I have only played with festival which can to Text to speech.
