I don't know much, but I followed the dyslexia link from our 'Equality'
page (at http://www.ccsr.cms.dmu.ac.uk/resources/equality/), to find at
http://www.dyslexic.com/ddkzinfo.htm it says "On the Apple MAC, Power
Secretary works in a similar way to DragonDictate". I don't have time to
do more ferreting (but I guess a search engine might help you find out
more about Power Secretary). I hope one or other of the links available
from our 'Equality' page is useful.

PS If anyone would like to suggest further links for our 'Equality' page,
I would be glad to hear. It is intended to cover all issues where
computers and equality are involved. It is hoped that disability will
spin off onto a seperate page soon.
