Say "send text" to submit

v0.4.0, feature

Send text is a new optional command: end a dictation with the words "send text" and Epilude sends the message for you, instead of typing those words. It inserts the rest of what you said, then presses Return.

It works where Return submits:

Chat apps, terminals, and web chats like Slack, Messages, Terminal, and ChatGPT

Single-line fields like a browser address bar or a search box

In editors and notes such as Word, Pages, and Notion, "send text" is typed as normal text and nothing is sent.

Send text is off by default. Turn it on in Settings → Dictation, under Dictation behavior, where you can also set specific apps to always or never send.
