No. Basically, you set up a KDE on Windows development environment with emerge ( http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/Windows/emerge). Then just run "emerge simon". That sounds easy but in practice there are often a lot of hurdles to solve before getting past building kde-runtime or even qt in some cases. YMMV, obviously. > - can Simon give a more extensive response in hearing a phrase, e.g. > accent check, speaking fluency and alike Not really, no. To sum up: Yes, you can write 3rd party applications that take advantage of Simon, but for your particular purpose, you probably shouldn't.
