1. A method for marking dictated text for deferred correction or review of dictated text in a speech recognition system proofreader, comprising the steps of:

  • displaying previously dictated text;

    sequentially highlighting target words in said text during a word-by-word playback;

    selectively establishing marks during said word-by-word playback for different ones of said sequentially highlighted target words responsive to user mark commands, each said mark established when said target word is highlighted;

    storing said marks in an ordered list, each of said marks including a current position and length of a corresponding marked word, said ordered list containing data associated only with marked words, whereby the marked words can be later recalled for correction in accordance with said ordered list;

    displaying said previously dictated text in a first display window;

    sequentially visually highlighting each target word of said previously dictated text in a first manner;

    visually highlighting each marked word in a second manner;

    sequentially displaying in a second display window portions of said previously dictated text including target words highlighted in said first manner; and

    , sequentially displaying in a third display window within said second display window target words in said previously dictated text highlighted in said first manner.
