From 9db2c2ad848668389adeb80dd211bf700e4d5520 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: xenodium Date: Tue, 27 Aug 2024 09:36:56 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Adds NSSpeechRecognitionUsageDescription to Info.plist.in Without it, we cannot launch processes that use macOS's speech recognition APIs. With NSSpeechRecognitionUsageDescription in place, macOS displays the dialog asking the user to grant permission and allows the speech APIs to be used from the process. --- etc/NEWS | 9 +++++++++ nextstep/templates/Info.plist.in | 2 ++ 2 files changed, 11 insertions(+) diff --git a/etc/NEWS b/etc/NEWS index c5040776a73..8b398b5f8ef 100644 --- a/etc/NEWS +++ b/etc/NEWS @@ -43,6 +43,15 @@ The 'find-function', 'find-library', 'find-face-definition', and 'find-variable' commands now allow retrieving previous input using the usual minibuffer history commands.
