I've never used such software comma but can't think it would be that onerous
hyphen once you've assimilated the quote grammar quote stop It would be
rather like composing the telegrams at a wedding of forty years ago
exclamation once you've started you can't stop stop

mathematical notation and technical terms, and as far as I remember from
what she told me she was able to 'teach' the software names for all the
symbols and terms etc that she needed. There must be some way of indicating
to the software that 'I am now about to say a name of some symbol', so it
knows not to treat it as just another word to transcribe. But my impression
talking to her was that there were ways of doing that kind of thing. So it
must be quite flexible and I'm sure things like punctuation could easily be
specified.

Perhaps you could teach the application to recognise  'comma' as a ',', etc.
Perhaps it already knows this, but the user did  not.

Couldn't you say the word comma or stop and then  do a search and replace
later on.

Someone at work used voice recognition software recently  following a
shoulder operation, and it reportedly worked quite well, but  punctuation
was almost non-existent. Are there tricks to including commas,  quotation
marks etc?
