Abstract

A voiced programming system and methods are provided herein.

Claims

1. A computer implemented program development environment comprising:

a speech recognition component;

a list of programmable instructions, wherein at least one programmable instruction is a program creation instruction; and

a program creation interface for including a first context sensitive instruction obtained via said speech recognition component.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein said list at least is a dynamic list, is an editable list, and a library, any of which may include programmable instructions, instructions, and programs.

3. The method of claim 1 wherein said program creation instruction creates at least one of a command, program, source code, interpreted code, macro, compiled code, script and byte code.

4. The method of claim 1 wherein said program creation interface includes a name for a command that includes said first instruction.

5. The method of claim 4 wherein said name is obtained from said speech recognition component.

6. The method of claim 5 wherein said name is formatted in accordance with the programming convention.

7. The method of claim 6 wherein said name is formatted in title case.

8. The method of claim 1 wherein said first instruction including a parameter.

9. The method of claim 8 wherein said parameter is obtained from said speech recognition component.

10. The method of claim 9 wherein said parameter is automatically placed in a programmatically correct position when obtained from said speech recognition component.

11. The method of claim 1 wherein said program creation interface is operative to automatically position a second instruction in relation to said first instruction.

12. The method of claim 1 wherein said first instruction is selected from said list of programmable instructions.

13. A computer-readable medium containing computer executable instructions for implementing the program development environment of claim 1.

14. A computing apparatus comprising a processor and a memory containing computer executable instructions, which when executed, are operative to implement the program development environment of claim 1.

15. A computer implemented method of creating a computer software program, the method comprising:

obtaining a program creation instruction;

depicting a source code entry user interface;

obtaining a name for a speech recognized command;

obtaining at least one context sensitive speech recognized instruction; and

generating the computer software program with said at least one context sensitive speech recognized instruction for said speech recognized command.

16. The method of claim 15, further comprising obtaining at least one parameter for said at least one speech recognized context sensitive instruction.

17. The method of claim 16 wherein said at least one parameter includes at least one speech recognized parameter.

18. The method of claim 15, further comprising obtaining a representation of said computer software program.

19. The method of claim 15 wherein said name is a speech recognized name.

20. The method of claim 19, further comprising formatting said name.

21. The method of claim 20 wherein said programming creation instruction is a speech recognition programming creation instruction.

22. A computer-readable medium containing computer executable instructions for performing the method of claim 15.

23. A computing apparatus comprising a processor and a memory containing computer executable instructions, which when executed, perform the method of claim 15.
