My custom scripts for nerd dictation which adds some features that I'm using for my programming set up.

• NATO phonetic alphabet
• useful shortcuts for tech terms
• special characters like "open bracket"
• different typing modes which you can activate on the fly
  • "mode speak": the default typing mode where each word is separated by a space and is lower case
  • "mode scream": same as speak but everything is in capital letters
  • "mode snake": same as speak but instead of spaces there are underscores. useful for typing variable names in python
  • "mode screaming snake": same as snake bite withall caps useful for constant variable names in c-like languages
  • "mode camel": same as speak mode but instead of spaces each word starts with a capital somethingLikeThis
  • "mode dictate": same as speak mode butthere are no spaces, useful for typing using the nato phonetic alphabeti

I also have a bunch of word replacements for words that I commonly say that others may notso feel free to remove them if you fork this

I typically use thison my steam deck using the steam dictation library.

I use the following flags when invoking nerd dictation for best performance and to have the auto shot off in case I forget and leave it running.

--continuous --numbers-as-digits --timeout 10 --idle-time 0.5
