Perl and Dragon pre-Vista (Score:1)

by n1vux (1492) on 2008.04.02 11:56 (#61935) Homepage Journal

A friend with worse wrists than mine had to give up Perl for Python. Not by choice, but because his older voice system (Dragon) takes 30 seconds (iirc) to switch training tables, and with Python, he can code with the same training table he uses for comments and documentation, but a punctuation-rich syntax like Perl or C or Java requires a more punctuation-savvy training set to avoid the sorts of excitement I expect in RTFA^W WTFV.

Sorry to hear Vista isn't the solution.
