That's kinda the point of this article. He's got a bunch of macros and idiosyncratic commands.

At 11:30 in the video:

"Camel this is a test" -> thisIsATest "Studly this is a test" -> ThisIsATest "Jive this is a test" -> "this-is-a-test" "Dot word this is a test" -> "this.is.a.test" "Score this is a test" -> "this_is_a_test" "Mara" -> selects all text on screen "Chik" -> delete

He says he'll release his code in a few months.

Yes, that was my point. I watched the video, and picked the camel case example from it.

I was replying to someone who said that input speed is not the main bottleneck in coding, hence implying that it's not all that useful to do things to improve input speed. While I concede that input speed is not the primary bottleneck, my point is that without macros like this to speed it up, voice input would be way too slow to do anything useful.

... the video is itself a few months old.
