QwikSwitch allows you to start and switch between frequently used programs quickly, by pressing alphanumeric key combinations (Hot-keys) or by speaking into a microphone. QwikSwitch is "speech ready" for the IBM* ICSS speech recognition product, ICSS run- time modules are required for speech recognition. ICSS is speaker independent and recognizes continuous speech, no need to pause between words. QwikSwitch comes with a manual and a complete set of "HELP" screens.
QwikSwitch will launch and hot-key between:
1. OS/2 PM apps
2. WPS folders
3. OS/2 / DOS windowed or full screen applications
4. WINOS2 seamless applications
Drag and Drop!
QwikSwitch supports drag and drop hotkey assignments! DOS applications requiring special DOS settings can be started using OS/2's desktop object settings (refer to README.TXT for instructions).
QwikTalk using IBM's ICSS speech recognition technology!
Nearly 100 pre-defined 'QwikTalk' words are available, most already set to your favorite OS/2 applications like 'Calculator', 'OS/2 Full Screen', 'Chess', and 'CD-player'. Just associate your favorite 'Word Processor', 'Mail', or 'Communications' package, with the 'QwikTalk' entry of your choice, and you can navigate your way around your applications by just talking.
Keyboard hot-keys!
72 keyboard combinations are available using (Ctrl)+(Shift) or (Ctrl)+(Alt) with any alphanumeric key combination. There are permanent hot-keys set to enable/disable QwikSwitch, OS/2 lockup, and shutdown.
QwikSwitch is ideal for:
* Corporate and business users who need to quickly switch between a number of applications, such CM/2 3270 sessions.
No need to minimize or move a window to get access to another window or the desktop!
It is many times faster than OS/2's window list using (Ctrl)+(Esc).
* Typists that are measured on their productivity.
* Programmers who need to have many applications open, and want to switch between them quickly.
* People with PC Monitors too small for the number of concurrent applications running.
* Lock up your computer quickly.
* Users of notebook PC's who find pointing devices awkward and want to 'navigate'
the OS/2 Desktop using just the keyboard.
* People who need or would simply like to navigate between applications by just speaking
