Package of Global Extra Scripts

One of these things that I am constantly doing in command mode is moving the cursor around and just dealing with input fields and trying to edit text, etc. I am usually only in dictation mode when I am actually "dictating" - since in my experience iListen has a tendency to aggressively turn every noise or utterance into a word (or command), if I stay in dictation mode I either have to turn off my microphone or I end up with lots of spurious text.

So, early on I developed a whole set of commands for moving the cursor around, among other things. They are general-purpose commands, usable for text editing, moving between input fields in applications, selecting text and other items, moving around menus, navigating the finder, etc. Lots of them are just multiple repetitions of the same command. I wish iListen had a way to repeat the same action without having to write it out - Dragon works beautifully in this regard with its natural command macro syntax.

The list of commands in this package is as follows:


Backspace
Backspace Eight
Backspace Five
Backspace Four
Backspace Nine
Backspace Seven
Backspace Six
Backspace Ten
Backspace three
Backspace two

Many of these seem to be very useful for me, but I've got no idea on how to use them. Is there somewhere I can learn how to use what you've created?
