Abstract
The case for interactive computer dialogues for naive users to be based upon textual keyboard inputs is supported. A number of problems associated with this approach are highlighted relating to the fact that a single input may be entered in a variety of ways. A computer procedure, called TEX, is proposed which is designed to tolerate this variance and to successfully recognize textual inputs.Keywords
