Abstract

See full text

A method and system in a computer system for communicating instructions to an application program in response to spoken commands received by a spoken command input facility is provided. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a list of available commands is displayed under the control of the spoken command input facility. Each available command has an instruction associated with it that causes the application program to take some action. The spoken command input facility then determines whether a command spoken by a user is an available command. The spoken command input facility then communicates the instruction associated with the determined available command to the application program. If the spoken command is an available command, the spoken command input facility then revises the displayed list of available commands.
