Launching and quitting applications

To launch applications using Dragon, just say Activate <application> (for example, Activate Safari). If the application is not running currently, it will be launched. If it is already running, this command will bring it to the front.

You can also quit applications by saying Quit this application or Quit <application> (for example, Quit TextEdit).

If this is the first time you have launched Dragon, the Activate commands will not yet be available. Next time you launch the application, Dragon will look through all the applications on your computer and generate Activate commands for each of them.
If you are still unable to use Activate commands, open the Preferences window and make sure that Generate Application Launch Commands is checked in the General pane.
