Abstract

In a speech recognition system, a method for using multiple cursors for dictation and correction of text can include a series of steps. The steps can include detecting whether a correction marker has been included within a body of text and searching for a user specified portion of text to be corrected within the body of text. The method further can include selecting the user specified portion of text and substituting an alternate user specified portion of text for the user specified portion of text within the body of text. The step of locating the correction marker within the body of text at a location defined by the alternate user specified portion of text further can be included. Additionally, the method can include the step of relocating an insertion cursor to the end of the body of text.
