Another vote for VoiceShell. It actually works well. You have to strike a balance with the detection accuracy. So if it's low accuracy, it may mix similar words/commands up. Higher accuracy and you'd have to say them exactly the same. So you have to set it correctly.
As far as I remember, you will need a parallel port sampler for this to work though. I'm afraid a soundcard won't work.

Were there any speech recognition packages, either speaker dependant, or speaker independant, made for classic amigas?

If you used one, how well did it work and on what specs machine?

I used to use VoiceShell in the late 90's. I had a standard A1200 then with some fast ram. VoiceShell worked well, but when it detects a signal (when you speak) it has to analyse it, so it does eat some CPU. I suspect it would be happier with a 25Mhz 020/030 or above.
