Rules, replacements and the dictionary

Three lists that fix the text automatically, before it reaches the window. All three are optional and the program works well without them.

SettingWhat it does
Punctuation and capitals

Where the dots and capitals come from: the model itself (fast, usually enough), the editor model (tidier, several seconds slower), or none at all — a plain run of words, which is what a search box wants.

Dictionary

Words the model tends not to know: surnames, company names, trade terms. Not an order but a hint — hearing something close, the model leans towards your spelling. Whisper models read it; GigaAM and the other narrow models do not.

Replacements

The same idea, but a guarantee rather than a hint: what is on the left becomes what is on the right. Each has three switches — whole words only, match case, and a language it is pinned to.

Voice commands

Phrases that act instead of landing in the text: new line, new paragraph, cancel, or your own phrase that drops in a signature or a stock reply. They count only when said whole and on their own.
