Voice recognition

As someone with arthritis and tendinitis I wonder when Logos Bible Software will work with voice recognition in Windows 7 and above? There are several standard APIs within windows to allow application interfaces to work either with Windows Speech Recognition or with Nuance's Dragon Naturally Speaking.

I'm really bummed because I have been using Logos/FL software for well over 10 years. Because of my health condition though I find myself using this software I love less and less. The Logos interface in Windows is absolutely void of any interaction outside of the mouse and keyboard.

As many of us age and our joints get slower, and sorer, I hate to think myself or others would have to walk away from the software we've come to rely on simply due to accessibility.

Dragon can be used, but it will not have out-of-the-box commands for Logos like it does for MS Word, for example. If you can get it at an affordable price, I highly recommend the Professional version of Dragon due to its ability to create custom commands. It takes some work on the front end, but you could theoretically turn every keyboard shortcut in Logos into a voice command for Dragon.

Hoping this will come in Windows 7, along with a better interface for tablets and touch screens.

What irritates me about Dragon, is that it seems to design it so that only the most recent version is compatible with a specific Windows update so that you normally have to buy an update every other one for it to be able to work unless you forgo a Windows update.
