james, is it possible to add this function in the next version?
i think its helpfull when somebody (like me  ) will start VC with Windows.
Or this function already exist?

Robert

I was wondering the same thing

yup! Star it with the command line option

VoxCommando.exe -Standby

or

VoxCommando.exe -Off

(It is currently case sensitive - I should fix that)

is it possible to add it in the settingswindow as checkbox? (in the next version)

I don't think I want to do that. Is there some reason you cannot call it with the command line option? That does remind me though, I think I will add the ability to run a startup macro. You could set the mode there.

yes thats also nice

this only works if you use the shortcut itself, pinning the shortcut to windows 7 taskbar and running it doesn't seem to run it in standby mode :S

it works fine for me.  Right-click the icon on the taskbar (when the program is NOT running)

you should get two choices

then right-click the voxcommando.exe that pops up and choose properties

add -Standby to the end of target field.  It should look something like:

C:\VoxCommandoDebug\VoxCommando.exe -Standby

note that you need the - and it is case sensitive so you need the capital S

Ah you're right, i dragged an already modified shortcut to the taskbar rather then modifying it when the shortcut was allready placed on the taskbar as you suggested.

btw you can also set this modifying the options.  look at the section called "triggered speech emulation" at the bottom right of the main tab.  There is a field called "starup command".  There you can type a phrase that matches the phrase you use for Standby in your command tree.

The command line option is safer though I think.
