Caption notes
Realtime stenographer Mirabai Knight introduces Plover, an open-source input tool that turns simultaneous key presses into text or commands. Using syllables and custom dictionaries, she explains how a single chord can enter a syllable, a whole word, or a frequently used command. In the Q&A, she considers how someone who has learned a personal dictionary could bring it to another device. She wants to make stenography easier to try and cites realtime captioning as one reason for doing so.
