- What it is
- The frequently asked questions of the Voxtype documentation, written by its maker. They say how speech is recognized, whether an internet connection is needed, and how the transcript is delivered to the cursor.
- How much weight it carries
- The maker's own documentation, so it is authoritative for how Voxtype works. It is undated and covers Linux builds mainly, so the platform scope of each figure is stated in the detail.
