Announcing punctuation sometimes works but you have to be clear on
saying period, comma, question mark, exclamation mark, etc.  Saying
"semicolon" resulted in inputted that string, not the ";" character.
"Paragraph" resulted in inputting the word instead of a starting a new
paragraph.  I might yet have to learn (instead of the program learning)
the style of voice input needed to get all punctuation recognized.

In my prior test, I would annonce a punctuation character right along
with the text and then continue speaking the next sentence; i.e., no
pause.  I found that if I pause, especially after announcing the
punctuation character, like half a second, that first the string got
entered and then backspaced after a pause to replace the string with the
punctuation character.  So it takes some training to get used to how to
comply with the needs of the program (rather than it learning your
voice).
