What Alternatives to Typing are Available in OS X?
I have severe bilateral arm and hand pain, for whatever reason. I also have coordination problems, so can only type with one hand, have to disable complex gestures on the trackpad, and keep accidentally triggering unwanted gestures on touch devices.
My right arm hurts more after typing. My arms hurt anyway, but it doesn't help.
I have tried "Dictation." I even bought an external microphone. I had no success. It would misinterpret "a" as "hey" or "A," it would drop spaces and add capital letters, it would misinterpret many other common words, sometimes as slurs, and other things. I think it took as much typing to fix the results as it would've taken to type the whole thing in the first place.
I have now also tried "Ink," with a graphics tablet. I had no success. It would miss letters and strokes and turn the results into gibberish.
I am at a loss.
Any ideas?
