VoxD was truncating transcriptions at exactly 285 characters due to ydotool command-line argument length limitations. Implemented automatic text chunking for strings exceeding 250 characters. Changes: - Add intelligent text chunking for long transcriptions - Add configurable chunk size (default: 250 chars) - Add configurable inter-chunk delay (default: 50ms) - Maintain existing behavior for short text (<250 chars) - Add proper error handling and logging - Add comprehensive tests for chunking behavior - Update documentation with new typing options Tested with transcriptions up to 2000+ characters with no character loss. Short text continues to use the fast, non-chunked method automatically. Resolves truncation issue where long dictations (e.g., academic content) would cut off mid-word at 285 characters.
