There is a voice recognition "toolbox"; it is for building voice
recognition systems: it is not, itself, a complete system.

Amancio Hasty was talking about getting it ported from Linux on the
FreeBSD Multimedia list a while back.  Knowing Amancio, I woudn't
be surprised if the software required a Gravis Ultrasound, or some
other better-than-sound-blaster (DSP?) card.


I would suggest contacting the Multimedia list, or Amancio Hasty,
directly for more information.
