provide an opinion of Natural Language Commands because MY UPGRADE IS
NOT HERE. WHEN WILL THE UPGRADES BE SHIPPED? What version of Nat 3.01
are you trying out? In partial agreement, without seeing version 3.01,
I have to say that I very much liked the Dragon Dictate (discrete)
engine's interface for creating voice macros and looking up words better
than Nat's. Don't know if this is because I used DD for so long but I
find the Command Wizard to be awkward, at best. Wish Nat had the "on
the fly" type of interface for macro creating that Dragon Dictate has.
