[FRIAM] Birx presentation

[Barry MacKichan]

Dragon has a dialog for new vocabulary. I pasted “ꙮ Mɥǝu 
ǝlǝdɥɐuʇs ɟᴉƃɥʇ' ʇɥǝ ƃɹɐss snɟɟǝɹs˙ ꙮ” into it 
and entered “grass elephant” for the spoken trigger, and then spoke 
“this is a test new line grass elephant” and got this:

	This is a test
	ꙮ Mɥǝu ǝlǝdɥɐuʇs ɟᴉƃɥʇ' ʇɥǝ ƃɹɐss snɟɟǝɹs˙ 
ꙮ

There was a small company in Texas (a married couple actually) that 
wrote a bunch of rules for our student-targeted product, *Scientific 
Notebook*, that allowed voice input of practically all mathematics. They 
used a feature of SNB which allowed the use of macros — strings of 
text that got replaced by arbitrary fragments of mathematics (TeX or 
MathML). You could say “quadratic formula” and up pops the formula 
properly formatted.

We also did output with Nemeth braille (Nemeth is an encoding of math 
used in the US) which was distributed by Duxbury, so we had some really, 
really grateful users.
