Thanks for sharing! I was literally getting ready to build, essentially, this. Now it looks like I don't have to!

Have you ever considered using a foot-pedal for PTT?

Apple incidentally already has native STT, but for some reason they just don't use a decent model yet.

They do, and they even have that nice microphone F5 key for it, and an ideal OS level API making the input experience >perfect<.

Apparently they do have a better model, they just haven't exposed it in their own OS yet!

Wonder what's the hold up...

For footpedal:

Yes, conceptually it’s just another evdev-trigger source, assuming the pedal exposes usable key/button events.

Otherwise we’d bridge it into the existing external control interface. Either way, hooks are there. :)

The only issue with Apple models is that they do not detect languages automatically, nor switch if you do between sentences.

Parakeet does both just fine.

sorry, PTT?
