The following three screenshot voice commands only work for windows:

It would be great to have these commands work for Mac as well.

is there an 'official' or recommended way of disabling things other than deleting? i often rename files to talon_ or py_ to prevent talon from loading them, but it may be we want to start having some talon files available in the repo, but disabled by default so people can enable them only if they need them. so it may be we want to agree on the best way to disable rules/script files.

I feel like eventually we're going to have so many rule files the new users having to delete all of the one they don't need is going to be harder than them just enabling the ones they do need for their workflow.

I think another useful example for disabled by default scripts would be with debug scripts. right now we kind of rely on the slack channel and people to ask for certain debug scripts and they just keep getting pasted over and over again, but if we included something like debug/ folder with python and talon files that could be used for debugging, and that are just disabled by default, we could just tell people to enable them and then it helps us be sure that they're using debug scripts that actually work as intended. examples would be your debug app command, record.py, etc.

filing discussion as an issue so there is a record that won't disappear due to slack message limits.

Dictation mode functions , but at the moment is not best in class. What talon does give us is the ability to switch to a command mode and do editing that I believe is getting to best of class.
Whilst we can possibly look to integrate with a best of class Dictation Executor this is probably a bigger project. Maybe there is some low hanging fruit in enabling Talon dictation mode to use some of the noise commands two switch temporarily back to command mode and then automatically back into dictation mode

My proposal is if the mouse click chif is heard then switched to command mode and if a pause of X seconds of no voice happens then switch back to dictation mode.

It would be nice to display in a future Talon desktop widget which mode Talon is in.

Any other thoughts?

when in dictation mode , if one attempts to use punctuation , talon adds spaces between the last word and punctuation marks .

As demonstrated above .

I'm thinking of trying to set different mouse scroll speeds for different programs. That is, I currently have something like the following for mouse_scroll_down:

def mouse_scroll_down_continuous(delta: float = 50):
        global continuous_scoll_mode
        continuous_scoll_mode = "scroll down continuous"
        mouse_scroll(delta)()
        if scroll_job is None:
            start_scroll()

        gui_wheel.show()

and I would like to add a few conditionals to the function to hard-code in certain values for delta for certain programs. How do I (programmatically) check what app is active? And do you think this would be a good way to go about doing things?

Eventually, though, it would be nice to be able to have some of these parameters get set automatically by some machine learning algorithm.

jetbrains currently has a series of helpful line commands
https://github.com/knausj85/knausj_talon/blob/98eaf9a7e926a394026754940e73a0ebf77e187f/apps/jetbrains.talon#L278

I think it makes sense to bump this out into there own thing, perhaps with a tag. Useful in non-coding apps like word etc too. Certainly should be part of ide.talon, at least.

While in firefox, on my windows 10 machine, I said:

"bookmark show"

as expected, this shows me my bookmarks.

Problem #1 : help context generic browser does not explicitly say the "close window" command will close the bookmark window, although it seems like a fairly intuitive assumption. I certainly figured it out. This apparently created problem #2:

Problem #2: while looking to see if a folder was actually created, I used the "bookmark show" command. This opened a file browsing window showing my bookmarks. I switched to notepad with the "focus notepad" command, which brought notepad forward. Then I said "focus firefox," which only brought the firefox bookmark window forward. Then I use the "window close" command to close the bookmark window. My Firefox window was still behind my notepad window after this. Saying "focus Firefox" did not bring Firefox back in front of notepad. ( I assume that even though I had closed the bookmark window, that was still considered a firefox window. So the focus was on firefox still. If I had to guess.) I had to say "focus notepad" and then "focus firefox" to enable to main firefox window to be brought all the way forward to where I could see it.

The app folder structure as refactored by @knausj85 in bba1b56 for VSCODE is a step in the right direction for maintainability and extending. 🥇
updated from discussions below

app
  /<MYAPP>
            <MYAPP>.<OS>.talon  (implementation code - where <OS> is linux | mac | win)
            <MYAPP>.py (talon support python code for MYAPP)
            <MYAPP>.talon (Voice Commands for  MYAPP)

I still believe platform differences could be managed in 1 file, reducing the amount of duplicate work in building support for a cross platform app. This will however need extending the talon syntax to enable a line in the talon file to apply or be exempt from a specific platform context.

Additionally, the support, maintenance and monolithic nature of where this repository is heading should at some point be considered.
It seems a huge task for this one repo to hold all commands for all conceivable applications. . It is also conceivable a user does not want a blotted command set but wants to pick and choose modules.
The above structure that was introduced is in my opinion a great step forward. Together with some guidelines it will enable building on top of the great work the core of this repository has introduced with the awesome TalonVoice by @lunixbochs

my intent with this issue is a place holder FEATURE discussion around appropriate structuring

there is an inconsistency in the repo with regards to how generic command order is approached across the repo, specifically with the order of [subject][action] vs [action][subject]. The most obvious example is earlier in this review you recommended using the file save, which follows the [subject][action] order. However, with the generic tab commands they all support the [action][subject] order. I also mix up the order situationally within the vim grammars, but it's making me wonder if we should try to standardize on one over the other, since I know you don't want to have duplicate ways of saying commands in your own repo.

I personally prefer [subject][action] in general because I can speak the subject that I want to interact with and then say what I want to do with it and it helps me think about what commands I actually going to give. I also think it correlates well to command-line stuff, where we say the number of the command first, and then the sub command. That said I guess it will rely depend on the user as to what order seems most intuitive though. I can move this discussion into a separate issue if you prefer.

Currently, the 1Password commands assume the user is using the 1Password installation on the OS + browser extension, but 1Password has the alternative 1Password X, which connects to my.1password.com. We should consider supporting both - maybe there's a way for Talon to tell which is being used?

Good idea or bad idea?

This is just to discuss the possibility of adding a few direct contributors to the repo besides myself. I'm still poking a few other people, but ideally I'm hoping for 4 collaborators including myself.

The things I'm looking for help with:

1. Responding to issues and PRs.
2. If you have any specific areas or platform of expertise, e.g. jetbrains/vim or Mac/Linux, take some degree of "ownership" of those bits where feasible.

Collaborator guidelines

• Take care of yourself and your health/needs first. Limit your time commitment to this effort.

• For "minor" fixes/improvements/bugs/new apps, you're free to contribute without any review

• For significant new development/refactoring you feel makes sense, it's likely still prudent to get a review from one of the other collaborators, or open a discussion as appropriate before committing your time?

Potential guidelines for contributions (PR review, etc)

• Any addition to the global grammar should be scrutinized a bit more thoroughly. The more specific a new context, the less scrutiny I typically apply.

• New grammars should follow the [subject][verb] standard where-ever possible.

• For Mac OS X, the bundle id should be used for defining app contexts, rather than the name.

• For Windows, both the friendly app name and exe name should be used for defining app contexts. For some people, the MUICache breaks.

• For new web apps, ensure the domain is used to minimize potential mismatches
  https://github.com/knausj85/knausj_talon/blob/master/apps/web/window_titles.md

• New applications should support the appropriate 'generic' grammars where possible

generic_browser.talon
find_and_replace.talon
line_commands.talon
multiple_cursors.talon
snippets.talon
splits.talon
tabs.talon

• New programming languages should support the appropriate 'generic' grammars where possible as well

operators.talon
programming.talon
comment.talon
block_comment.talon

and should support the lists

user.code_functions
user.code_libraries

where appropriate. See e.g. csharp.py/csharp.talon. At least, until we come up with something better 👍

On my windows 10 machine, in firefox, I said

"show cache"

The first time I said it, a window appeared with a bunch of checkboxes and such. This was after I had been testing nearly every other command in the generic browser help context, so I had done a lot of browsing.

I shut down firefox, restarted my computer, restarted firefox, and said "show cache." No window appeared and nothing happened. I repeated the command several times. I expected a window to appear like the first time, but no window ever did.

documentation on the full QA test of the help context generic browser command set can be found here: https://gist.github.com/tararoys/041cf944f2d275176ea56eb2d24f5493

I've been reading breadcrumbs left in the code, so I know that talon scripts can't take parameters yet. There's a note left to put the function paramter block () inside a language-specific function at some point.

This ticket is just a reminder for one of us to consider adding language specific block completion to whatever method is created. example:

insert(" {}")
# the following is just an example, not sure if it's ideal
key(left enter up end left left left)

I think Talon files should probably be moved over to using the new funk commands. This would necessitate breaking them out of programming.talon, though.

e.g.,
https://github.com/knausj85/knausj_talon/blob/aa927eef00c1b714701c3223c7c3185915cdcaab/lang/talon.talon#L17

would be replaced by support for the funk things for consistency
https://github.com/knausj85/knausj_talon/blob/aa927eef00c1b714701c3223c7c3185915cdcaab/lang/programming.talon#L70

command should be part of tabs.talon. currently, various permutations are hiding in linux terminal, ide and rstudio.

With the Windows beta of Talon, and with Dragon NaturallySpeaking, when I try to write the word "point" using Talon formatters, it becomes '.'. For example:
"camel point" -> .
"hammer point" -> .
"word point" -> .

I was hoping this was something I could change in the Python config files in ~/talon, but I can't seem to find where it's happening. I did a grep search of my ~/talon folder and I don't see anything causing this. Particularly it's not configured in keys.py, nor formatters.py. When formatters are called, point has already been converted to '.'.

I don't think this is caused by Dragon because when Talon is disabled, with Dragon in dictation and command mode, if I say point it writes "point". In Dragon's command mode if I say point, it writes nothing, as expected since that's not a Dragon command and Talon was off.

Any help would be appreciated. Being able to write variables and types named "point" is important to me because I am trying to work on code involving two-dimensional graphics. Having "point" convert to "." when writing floating point numbers is great, but I'm hoping to disable that conversion in formatters. I know I can spell out "point", but it's twice as many syllables. I also don't want to modify the formatters to convert '.' back to "point" because then I couldn't use "dot" with formatters.

Is there a reason why these are defined differently for mac and windows?
mac:

action(edit.extend_line_down):       
	key(shift-down cmd-shift-right)

windows:

action(edit.extend_line_down): 
	key(shift-down)

In my opinion, the mac implementation is incorrect and the windows implementation is correct. Happy to make a PR

Do you have thoughts on using a standard python code formatter like black? There are a few reasons for putting all python code through such a tool.

1. Using a tool like black makes editing code by voice significantly easier. You can dictate code in a nasty format and with no spaces, etc. Once you are done, you can just let your editor/formatter fix everything for you with a single command or on every save
2. It makes it easier to keep a codebase like this being edited by multiple people in the same style for easier reading and contributing

One issue with this tool is that if I start using it on my code, any PR I make will include all kinds of formatting changes as well which is undesirable. I would be happy to make a PR which runs the entire code base through such a formatter, just let me know.

go support has fallen a bit behind, need to investigate

• Support for operator grammar (https://github.com/knausj85/knausj_talon/blob/master/lang/operators.talon)
• Support for comment grammar (https://github.com/knausj85/knausj_talon/blob/master/lang/comment.talon, https://github.com/knausj85/knausj_talon/blob/master/lang/block_comment.talon)
• Support for generic programming grammar? (https://github.com/knausj85/knausj_talon/blob/master/lang/programming.talon)

Similar to the code.py actions, consider ide- and language-agnostic snippet actions

On windows when focusing on a cmd.exe window that is running a bat file the extended window title is causing an exception. It looks like the path extraction from the title needs some exception trapping. I have observered this also whilst switching to a CMD window running a bash session of WSL.

Whilst this exception is not crashing Talon for sake of stability I am documenting this. I also am hesitating submitting a PR here as I have not explored the filemanager capabilities of this repo so don't know what may not work or be affected by code changes here.

Log snippets can be genererated by:

1. Start Run: CMD.exe, conda activate , then focus on this open cmd window
2. Start Run: CMD.exe, bash, then focus on this open cmd window

Right now when you want to switch window focus you have to say a word the matches a generated list of running applications, and this list has an override that lets you more easily say the names of complex application names, for instance term is iTerm2 or whatever.

I propose we change the way the list works so that actually we just use focus <user.text> for the command, and then switcher_focus() does the lookup for whatever text it gets inside the running application list. Doing it this way allows us to leverage any additional vocabulary that's been added to vocabulary.py without necessarily having to hardcode it again inside of switcher.py.

in addition I propose that we introduce slightly fuzzer matching. IFor example, my vocabulary.py as a rule for "key pass" which becomes "keepass", and this is helpful when I am just talking to other people in chat or whatever. But the actual name of the running process is KeePassXC. I don't necessarily want to always be typing that exact word into chat with other people when I say key pass though. I suspect this type of thing will be increasingly common the more people are using it with different applications

As it stands if I wanted to match the app with current switcher I'd have to put "key pass":"KeePassXC" override in switcher.py, instead of just matching the result I already have in vocabulary.py.

In addition to using vocabulary.py, I propose we check for a partial match using startswith(), so then I would be able to say something like "focus key pass" and it would actually come through as focus keepass, which would in turn match against keepassxc.

We can of course keep the overrides for certain things that are a bit harder to say in switcher.py, for instance I think people aren't going to have term becoming iTerm2 in vocabulary.py.

This can mostly all be done with a simple switcher_focus() change like:

        running = ctx.lists["self.running"]
        wanted_app = None
        for running_name in running.keys():
            if running_name == name or running_name.lower().startswith(name):
                wanted_app = running[running_name]
                break
        if wanted_app is None:
            return

        for app in ui.apps():
            if app.name == wanted_app and not app.background:
                #os.system("i3-msg '[class=\"(?)%s\"] focus'" % app.name)
                app.focus()
                break

Not sending a PR for now as I figured I'd run it past others first.

One possible change could be that it does two passes, the first pass matches on explicit name matches so you don't accidentally match against something that has a more explicit match, and then if there are no explicit matches, it tries a second pass with fuzzy matching.

I'm using talon beta on Windows 10 with Dragon 15.3. When I start up talon, after it initializes and connects to Dragon, it uses about 15 – 23% of my CPU (about one for core), and causes the computer to become slow to respond. The mouse becomes shaky, and applications can take several seconds to respond sometimes.

I ran talon_console.exe, and it constantly gives these errors which might be related (or they might not be, see my later discussion):

It's very possible these errors are not related to the high CPU usage. I have another windows 10 machine with the same number of cores on which I see talon consume on 3 – 10% of the CPU, and talent_console.exe gives the same errors on that machine. The only relevant difference I think of is that machine is on Dragon 15 (not 15.3).

I'm hoping this is just something wrong with my setup. Please let me know if it is. In my talon home folder, under talon\user, has the latest version of https://github.com/knausj85/knausj_talon, which I cloned a few minutes ago. My talon executable might be older - I don't know how to update it. I tried the "Check for updates…" option from the taskbar icon, but it doesn't seem to do anything.

From #169 (comment):

Since you mentioned types, one the thing I have been wanting to do with types is have the ability to toggle between default types used by the C stuff, since for instance stdint (ex: uint8_t) vs default types (unsigned char) are two common used but different typing styles across many code bases (i constantly work on different codebases). originally I tried to do this with just updating a talon setting, but it seems like you can up to a setting on the fly, so I guess we need some way of maybe standardizing non talon setting 'settings' for different programming languages. may be suitable for a different issue if you want me to file it, but I thought I'd raise it since you mentioned types here if you plan on thinking about it. I suspect this might be something ran into other languages (cpp, windows (DWORD, etc)), so may also be worth having some quasi generic method of selecting the default type set

Is changing the typeset something that could be done cleanly per-project? I have my doubts, but...

For example, the default type list could be the std_*, or whatever’s considered vanilla C. Then for projects using some other set, the list could be changed via a more specific python context.

So a python file with something like the below, plus a modified list.

ctx.matches = r"""
mode: user.c
mode: command 
and code.language: c
tag: ctypes_fancy

Then, elsewhere opt-in:

title: \some project\
title: \some other project\
-
tag: ctypes_fancy

I speak the command:

"Go forward"

while in the firefox browser

problem: the command works exactly like "forward," which is fine.   The issue is a documentation issue:  "Go forward"  is not listed on the  help context generic browser command list help page.

documentation on the full QA test of the help context generic browser command set can be found here: https://gist.github.com/tararoys/041cf944f2d275176ea56eb2d24f5493

Using the talon linux beta 1488, the phrase 'command history' successfully displays the panel, but after toggling another panel, ie 'formatter help', the history panel becomes unable to move and Talon crashes when 'command history' is repeated to close the panel.

The panel does work fine as long as other panels are not toggled.

Only relevant output in the console is:
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Let me know if there is any other info that would be helpful!

When I'm using dictation mode, i am finding that the first person singular is not being properly capitalized, as illustrated in this sentence. Compound constructions like "I'm" or "I've" work, but not a single i.

i am finding this happens whether i am using the command "say" or using dictation mode.

I'm really confused about this because it seems like there's code that should make the substitution:

useful for word/teams/slack/github messages/etc etc. activate via tag as appropriate.

In firefox, on my windows 10 machine, I said the command

"Bookmark bar"

problem: this command does not seem to do anything. Nothing appears on the screen when it is spoken into the microphone and the focus is on Firefox the browser.

for example yeller while some text is selected should pass the selected text through the formatter and replace the selected text with the formatted text.

This issue is in the vein of #171, but one small thing I often do with my own lists is constantly makes sure alphabetized so that it's easier to quickly update them manually but also find a relevant entry while scanning with my eyes (vs searching), etc. examples would be things like the various formats in formatters.py (yours vs mine) , things in abbreviate.py, etc.

so it be worth considering to favor alphabetically ordered lists to make managing the code even easier/faster. might be kind of annoying in some editors, but in vim it is trivial so I can always do it and send pull requests if necessary. also sometimes alphabetizing doesn't make sense because things are categorized into smaller groups, but just in general it would be nice because even if they're grouped they could be alphabetized within the group.

this is obviously way less impactful then black changes, and possibly more subjective preference (would make merging easier for me sometimes lol) so of course feel free to close and ignore as needed :D

public talon implementation here: https://github.com/dwiel/talon_community/blob/master/misc/window_snap.py

Mistakes were made. Some files from other depots were MIT, probably switch to MIT.

I can't put my finger on it, but some action definitions don't work in terminal.talon. For example:
action(app.tab_open): key(cmd-t)
This does not work, Talon doesn't even recognize it (it hears 'near tab'). In contrast this works perfectly:
new tab: key(cmd-t)
Note that I have no problem with 'new window', which is defined through an action.I'm just putting it out there and hope it would be useful. ``

https://github.com/knausj85/knausj_talon/blob/master/code/formatters.py

Maybe add ability to ‘pin’ formatters too

• It seems to me that these commands should probably be terminal-specific?

cd: "cd "
grep: "grep "
elle less: "ls "
run L S: "ls\n"
run (S S H | S H): "ssh"
run vim: "vim "
run make: "make\n"
run make (durr | dear): "mkdir "

• Should any of the below always be available, or perhaps moved to language-specific things?

args: 
	insert("()")
	key(left)
[inside] (index | array): 
	insert("[]") 
	key(left)
empty array: "[]"
list in it: 
	insert("[]") 
	key(left)
(dickt in it | inside bracket | in bracket): 
	insert("{}") 
	key(left)
block: 
	insert("{}") 
	key(left enter enter up tab)

• These seems pretty C-specific and would probably be better off in a C-specific code_function list

word streak: 
	insert("streq()") 
	key(left)
word printf: "printf"

• These seems pretty python-specific

dunder in it: "__init__"
state past: "pass"

etc, etc.

May i make a quick suggestion about a design choice I've seen in the repo? I've noticed that whenever we need to show/hide some gui, the interface has tended to use two commands, e.g. show formatters and hide formatters. May i suggest that we try to use just one command instead, e.g., toggle formatters (or formatter display etc)?

The main reason is that the fewer the number of voice commands one has to remember, the better. But this may just be a purely stylistic preference.

I speak the command

"Help Context Generic Browser"

Problem: It is supposed to open the generic browser help context menu. It does it about one time in four. Have to repeat the command 3 times with the right accent, and then it opens the generic browser help context menu. Still not sure what the right accent/pronunciation is. It seems to have trouble with the word 'generic' since after that word it prints the word 'browser' in a text field if I have a cursor in a text field while giving that command.

Not sure if training the system more will help. This issue cropped up the first day I was using it.

OS: windows 10

NOTE: this set of commands is compatible with browser plug-ins like streamingkeys

Commands to go to the end of the line and insert some sort of symbol, relative to the language being coded in may be quite useful.
For example for python, the following command may be quite useful,

push comma:
     edit.line_end()
     insert(",")
     key(enter)

This sort of command can be especially useful for languages like C, where brackets need to be commonly inserted at the end of lines and where semicolons are inserted at the end of statements.

Just wondering if this seems like a good idea or better for users to implement for their specific use cases.

• tmux, vscode, notepad++ support various window split functionality. Maybe it makes sense to move this out of ide and into its own thing to be activated by a tag?

implementation here:

• https://github.com/dwiel/talon_community/blob/master/apps/terminal.py#L222
• https://github.com/dwiel/talon_community/blob/master/apps/terminal.py#L361

for moving a window to a different screen: https://github.com/dwiel/talon_community/blob/master/misc/window_snap.py

This seems like it'd already be known if others were having the same issue, so maybe there's something specific to my device but the new programming language detection introduced in this commit doesn't work for PyCharm for me on Mac. Both "file_extension" and "file_name" are blank. For reference, the regex-based method it replaced still works fine so I'm back to that one for now.
