Hello! I know its been quite some time since I last posted on the blog, but I've been occupied on work and you know how that goes. 

Unfortunately, I haven't had much time either on programming so its coming slow. That how it goes...

Anyhow both polls I've posted have ended and the results are:

Most acceptable name: Petals Office

Most desired features: OCR to document, Speech to text

I liked Petals Office myself so thats going to be the name of the program. I will try to implement both other features on the program... The road ahead is going to be difficult. :D

 

As you can see from the questionnaire posted some time ago, I am planning to add some advanced features. I think that most of them should be part of a modern office suite regardless how many users actually need them or may use them. 

Some of the options I've researched in the past and I believe that when the time comes, they will be ripe and ready for everyday usage. These are OCR to document, with automatic layout recognition and a simple speech to text implementation. Of course and as always don't expect that these features will be able to stand up to commercial programs. But as anyone can figure out, in time they will get better, as long long as I get user feedback.

I hope they will prove useful.
