[MV] Removing/redefining pre-existing commands

[Chuck Rogers]

Gavin (and everyone else):

Any command you can see in the Command Editor can be edited to your  
heart's content. Unfortunately, "paragraph" is not one of them. There  
are several commands that are embedded into the speech engine that we  
have absolutely no way to influence.

The only way to adjust the way the word "paragraph" behaves is to  
consistently use the phrase "new paragraph" when you want to have a  
paragraph, and then (also consistently) correct each instance of the  
word "paragraph" to type out the word instead. Over a great deal of  
time (probably hundreds of corrections, in this case) it will  
eventually adapt.

Best Regards,

Chuck Rogers, Chief Evangelist
