A little Chrome extension that helps me input text using my voice on my Chromebook. It should work on macOS and Windows as well as on Linux.

1. Download the source code and extract it.

2. Go to chrome://extensions and enable the Developer mode.

3. Click “Load unpacked.”

4. Select the downloaded folder.

• Press Ctrl+Shift+0 to start a stop the recognition in English language.

• Press Ctrl+Shift+9 to start a stop the recognition in Thai language.

• Languages and keyboard shortcuts can be customized in the options.

• Whatever you speak is copied into the clipboard, so you can paste into any apps immediately afterwards. If the recognition is incorrect, you can just re-speak it (or fix it manually).

• Go to chrome://extensions/shortcuts to customize the keyboard shortcuts to your liking. On Windows and macOS, you may also set the shortcut to be global, so that you can use it outside Chrome.

# Generates an extension package
./scripts/build-package.sh

# These two files are generated:
# 1. `tmp/vx` - and unpacked extension
# 2. `tmp/vx.zip` - the zipped version, for uploading to Google Chrome developer dashboard

# Run it
rm -rf tmp/chrome-profile && /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --no-first-run --no-default-browser-check --user-data-dir="$PWD/tmp/chrome-profile" --load-extension="$PWD/tmp/vx"
