+You may want to install the Hidden Markov Model Toolkit (HTK) which is 
+covered by a license which does not permit free distribution.  However, 
+you need HTK if you want to train your acoustic model.  You can obtain
+HTK from here (but only after registering): http://htk.eng.cam.ac.uk/
+
+If you are creating solutions which will be used by more than one user, or
+simply don't have the time to train the system, you can use static base models.
+Static models are used as-is and are not modified by simon in any way.
+Because of this, it is important that the selected base model matches your
+voice as closely as possible.
+
+Even if you use a static model, you NEED to get an acoustic model from the web.
+You can download some prebuilt models at http://www.voxforge.org/
+
+BEGINNER GUIDE:
+If you are a beginner and you don't know exactly how a speech recognition works,
+but want just to enable this "cool feature", you may want to follow these steps
+(static model), in order to make simon operative (English).
+
+This is to help you to your first approach to this program, next you will
+be able to customize more and more!
+
+ 0. Browse acoustic models from
+    http://www.repository.voxforge1.org/downloads/Nightly_Builds/current/
+    Download "HTK_AcousticModel-2010-12-16_16kHz_16bit_MFCC_O_D.tgz"
+ 1. Uncompress the model where you want.
+ 2. Run "ksimond" (not from root). You need to have the daemon simond running.
+ 3. Configure "simond". (ksimond -> configuration -> simond). Add a username and a
+    password which are going to be used by simon.
+ 4. Run "simon". An assistant will appear. Click "Next" once to jump to "Scenarios"
+    section of the assistant.
+ 5. Get some scenario. You need at least one, download a scenario in English.
+ 6. Configure base model. Choose "Static model" type. From the uncompressed acoustic
+    model of step 1 choose:
+    - "hmmdefs" file for HMM definition
+    - "tiedlist" file for Tiedlist
+    - "macros" file for Macros
+    - "stats" file for Stats
+    Click "Ok", then "Next".
+ 7. "Server" and "Sound devices" sections configuration depends on what hardware
+    and software you're going to use.
+    You can safely just press "Next" to leave them unchanged.
+ 8. Adjust the volume of your microphone (or any input device you're going to use)
+    I suggest you to get the rumor at few percentage (3%-4%) and to get
+    "Volume correct" while speaking (I boosted my microphone for that)
+ 9. Optionally perform a training of speechable texts of your scenario to put your
+    voice in training data for a better recognition.
+10. Speak!

+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
+# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
+# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
+# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

+simon: simon (speech recognition software)
+simon:
+simon: simon is the main front end for the simon open source speech 
+simon: recognition solution. With a few words (Numbers from 0 to 9, 
+simon: "up", "down", etc.) you can control a number of programs like 
+simon: a webbrowser, e-mail client, mediacenter, etcetera...
