How to use
To make netbeans hear and execute your voice commands, you have to turn on the monoh plugin. Some classes related to your microphone will be initialized and a thread will be started to hear your voice commands.
You can do this clicking on Tools > Monoh. The message "MONOH is loaded, you can speak now." shall appear on the status bar.
A microphone button image shall appear on the toolbar. If the button is green, monoh is ready to listen to you. If it is red, it is turned off. Clicking on this button will turn on/off the microphone.
To execute actions on the IDE with voice commands, you have to say the word 'monoh' plus the desired action. The actions available are:
- Actions for editing
- copy
- cut
- delete
- paste
- replace
- Actions for refactoring
- encapsulate fields
- extract interface
- extract super class
- move
- pull up
- push down
- rename
- use super type
- Actions for debugging
- add breakpoint
- add watch
- continue
- run to cursor
- step into
- step out
- step over
- Actions for files
- find
- file search
- new file
- open file
- print
- save
- Actions for projects
- build
- debug
- new project
- open project
- run
- test
- General actions
For example, to execute the open project dialog, you have to say '"monoh open project". Say ''monoh'" exactly like the word mono in english. A message on the status bar will show you if the command was understood or not. If it's not clear enough, the command will not be understood, or worst, monoh will understand a different action. In the case the action not understood, you have to say again. In the case of execute a diferent action, you may say '"monoh undo'" and try again.
TIP: As a general rule, don“t speak to close to microphone.
NOTE: this is a project on very early stages and the voice recognition process is something not usual, for now only american english is supported and you have to speak with a good pronunciation. We intend to improve it.
