Python Speech recognition

I was wondering is there any way to make Python get a input from my microphone, compare it with some .WAV sample files and based whether it has a match or not execute some code? Speech recognition or Audio fingerprint i think its called... Two more things, please dont refer me to the Pyspeech or dragonfly project, because i think it supports up to version 2.5 (while i am using version 3) and i was hopping to have a stand-alone program (Pyspeech uses some windows speech kit).
And secondly any kind of brain storm ideas or references to similar projects, tutorials, or libraries would be most welcome.

Thanks in Advance.

What operating system do you use?

I capture microphone input in current ubuntu linux release using a pipe from

arecord


and on windows my friend uses
mmsystem.dll

Good luck.

i am using windows, do you have any references or turorial where i can study from for mmsystem.dll? and i can use it with any language? (which language would you suggest?)

http://docs.python.org/3/library/audioop.html

This being a python forum, try the audioop library.

Otherwise, search the internet. Python connects to dlls quite well via the ctypes module.
