Hi Daniele, thank you for your comments! I'm happy to hear that WhisperWriter has worked well for you :)

I appreciate your feature requests and I went ahead and added the option for a "beep" sound to play once the transcription has finished writing to the screen. After downloading my latest commit, you can turn the feature on by setting the noise_on_completion configuration option to true in src\config.json. If you would like to change the sound that is made, you can replace "beep.wav" in the assets folder, or change the file path on line 102 of main.py.

Although there is not currently a pipelining feature like you described with the default voice activity detection method, you can change the way the app starts and stops recording to a key toggle. If you change recording_mode in the configuration options to press_to_toggle, the app will start listening when you press the keyboard shortcut and stop listening when you press it a second time, rather than waiting for you to finish speaking.

I hope you find these changes useful! Please let me know if there are any other features that would make the app work better for you :)
