Hi joseph,<br><br>You mean creating an alternative to the handwriting recognition also? something like palm's graffite ?<br>Or go for something newer like the dasher etc?<br><br>[]s<br><br>Marcelo Oliveira<br><br><br><br><div>

Total newbie here, so please speak slowly and use small words.<br><br>I'd like to make (or somehow con someone else into making) a custom<br>input method for the 770 based on HexInput<br><<a href="http://www.strout.net/info/ideas/hexinput.html">
http://www.strout.net/info/ideas/hexinput.html</a>>. From what I've<br>read in the archives, this ought to be possible. But I'm a Mac<br>developer, not a Linux one, and I'm pretty clueless about where to<br>begin.<br>
<br>Has anyone here made a custom input method for the 770 yet? Or know<br>anyone who has? Even a simple demo, like something that draws a box<br>and enters "A" when you stroke to the left and "B" when you stroke to
<br>the right, would be all I need to get started. Barring that, I'll<br>take pointers to the relevant docs, or even vague words of<br>encouragement...<br><br>I firmly believe that with the right approach and a little practice,
<br>text input on a pen-based device can be as fast as with a keyboard.<br>But the virtual keyboard included by default with the 770 (and with<br>all PDAs) isn't the right approach. Help me fix that, and we'll have<br>people using the 770 instead of their laptops for almost everything!
