    Well, a little fantacy: I'm starting to have problems with my hands (a typical programmer's problem: repetitive stress), and I'm also starting to play with speech recognition. You can guess what I'm thinking: Ctrl- is killing me in emacs, can I use a perl program to receive commands from speech, and call some emacs commands?

      I don't know what kind of system you work on, but if you use a PC keyboard, you may want to keymap CapsLock to CTRL.
