Thanks for the suggestions , I had no idea that there was a text to speech for autohotkey . But in my case , I use Denise as a talking head .Is there a way to do that scrape function in autohotkey ?


Anyway here is what I have so far , but needs improvements . I purposely made bad moves to cut it short , I'm not really this bad.

@Haddood -- I don't use AH, so I apologize if this is a stupid question. If he can do that from an AH script, why wouldn't he just have AH send a TTS action directly? Why trigger an event?

i.e.

Code: [Select]

VoxCommando.exe -33000 "TTS.Speak&&E2 to E3"http://voxcommando.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Command_line#Perform_Actions

Because I use Denise as a talking head , not TTS , so I have to use the scrape function anyway to use Denise .

Ok, I you are probable right , I have it working with 6 little lines of script in autohotkey . That's one program I am very familiar with .
And I decided to go with winsize2 for maintaining my window size and position . Thank you Kalle for that , I noticed in the manual the author Kalle Koseck , is that you?

Right now my workaround is to have an autohotkey script monitor my clipboard and when it detects a change , it does a keypress (spacebar) which vox can detect using the keyboard hook plug-in . I just thought there might be a better way within vox

I can give you the answer how you can set the size and position of any program window 

http://winsize2.sourceforge.net/en/index.html

maybe it helps   

Thank you Kalle for the link to winsize , and I might use this . I can also do this with a simple little autohotkey script . But I just wondered if vox had it's own way to do this.

Yes , In my chess program , each move is placed on the clipboard as a new move , replacing the last move , each time a new move has been placed on the clipboard , I want to trigger tts voice to announce the move , so the tts voice needs to know when a new entry has been made to the clipboard .

Ok , new question . (I only resort to asking when I can't find the answer here) , I'm creating an interactive chess program , where moves are made and spoken by vox . Since I can't make mouse clicks relative to the active window , I need to make sure my chess window always opens in the same position and size : left: 838     top: 33     width: 800     height: 600 . Is there a command for setting this ?   And can I create a trigger that triggers any time the clipboard contents changes ?

Hi all ,
 I have two questions , is there a way to add a small delay ,(100 ms), between the activation of a command and the dictation payload within ?
And is there a way to do a mouse click relative to the active window ?

Ok sorry for that , I will make a note of it . ....Hi Kalle , thank you for you insight . You were right ,I had the osd turned off in options and didn't know about the confirmation . Duh!!!
So you are correct , it works . Yeay ! . I also learned that I can pass AIML commands to denise too. By including the command  <silence msec="2000"/> between the format options in the ggcal plug-in , I can fine tune the pauses in denise's dictation . Of course I change the two second setting to what ever sounds natural .

Hi all , I have been playing with this plug-in for a few days and reading all I can about it . problem is all I can find to read about it took about 15 minutes . I like the concept of this plug in , and I can make it work fine for retrieving results from my calendar. But , using the quick add , is not quite working for me . I have been playing with the sample from above by jitterjames since it is the only example I have been able to find for adding events to my calendar . vox understands the phrase to add to quick add but the event never gets to my calendar.
This is the command I'm using "

Well I never knew what I was doing wrong in the first place , I simply deleted both command groups and reinstalled the two groups then did the same thing as before only this time it worked , so probably I just made a mistake the first time (unknown) . I'm new to this scripting language , so I'm still getting use to it. I wish there were more tutorials on the "if" "then" statements . I did add the "close groceries" command . Does anyone else on this forum deal with denise and vox ?
