v0.1.0 — first release
First public build of dicto — offline voice dictation that puts the transcript on your clipboard.
Install (Ubuntu 24.04+ / Debian 13+)
```sh
sudo apt install ./dicto_0.1.0-1_amd64.deb
```
apt pulls in the runtime dependencies (libasound2, libvulkan1, systemd, xdg-desktop-portal). The whisper `large-v3-turbo` model is bundled inside the package, no extra download needed.
Use
Launch dicto from your Applications menu, or run `dicto-daemon`. Press the global shortcut (default `Ctrl+Alt+Space`) to start/stop recording — the transcript lands on the clipboard, paste with `Ctrl+V`.
What works
- Toggle recording via the GlobalShortcuts portal hotkey
- Offline whisper.cpp inference on the GPU via Vulkan
- Auto language detection (English / Russian / 97 more)
- Tray icon showing idle / recording / processing
- Sound cues on transitions
- Clipboard-only output (no keystroke synthesis required)
Requirements
- Linux on Wayland — GNOME 45+ or KDE Plasma
- glibc 2.39+ (Ubuntu 24.04 or newer; Debian 13 or newer)
- A Vulkan-capable GPU (any modern NVIDIA / AMD / Intel)
