![[Scripting for Dragon NaturallySpeaking 8, by Larry V. Allen]](/images/products/scripting8.gif)
Following is a list of commands (macros) described in Scripting for Dragon NaturallySpeaking 8. You do not need to type or dictate the text of the macros as they are available for download below.
In most cases, the downloaded macro starts with the word "sample" which does not appear in the book. Where the book has two versions with the same macro name, the second version in the downloaded macros starts with the word "example."

No permission is granted for any commercial distribution of these in whole or in part. Contact Softnet Systems, Inc. for permissions for usage of these macros for other than personal use. Purchasing of the book Scripting for Dragon NaturallySpeaking 8 is not required to download and use these macros. Be aware that some of the macros make little sense without the book.
The file r8scripting.dat below contains these macros for downloading. These macros may be imported into a Release 8 system. The Word-specific macros currently posted (December 6) are based on Word-2003 and need references changed for Word-2000 or Word-2002. They may not work with Word-97, but DNS 8 does not support Word-97 and performance seems abysmal with Word-97 in one test. Copy the text, delete the macro, and recreate it for Word-2000 or Word-2002 usage. Modified versions of these macros may be posted during December.
We make no promises that these macros will work on your particular system, in your environment. These are intended as examples for educational purposes. As such, we are aware that there may be more efficient means of performing some of these functions.
