Bind your speech script on mouse button

[gnusupport]

Modern mouses have some buttons on sides, in my case those are buttons 8 and 9.

Install xbindkeys and configure in $HOME/.xbindkeysrc.scm

(xbindkey '("b:8") "rcd-llm-speech-single-input.sh")

You may use different script to invoke the speech recognition. I am using this one:
https://gitea.com/gnusupport/LLM-Helpers/src/branch/main/bin/rcd-llm-speech-single-input.sh

I am running both speech recognition models such as NVIDIA Canary-1B-Flash, the fully free software model: nvidia/canary-1b-flash · Hugging Face:
https://huggingface.co/nvidia/canary-1b-flash and Whisper model.

That is because I often switch LLMs inside of GPU, and sometimes Canary is not running.

I have noticed that Whisper is not going to process 1 second audio, so I have added the command:

    cp "$audio_file" $TEMP_INPUT
    sox "$TEMP_INPUT" "$audio_file" reverse pad 0.7 0 reverse

which is padding some silence to the audio file before processing it.

Once you have your speech script bound to mouse button, all your computer becomes super-accessible, you can search Internet, YouTube, Github, all by talking, and anything you talk becomes transcribed.
