Hello,

The description / howto / demo is here : 
http://mrl.nyu.edu/projects/quikwriting/Quikwrite1.html


After a few tries it seems to be an interesting input method ; I can't 
say if it's gonna be easier to learn/use than grafiti or other methods 
though...Especially with fingers on the real device. I guess somebody 
who already has a GTA01 will have to try :)

Quikwriting

2008-04-12 Thread Ortwin Regel
Quikwriting is the best input method for finger input on a small
touchscreen like the Neo's that I have come across.
http://mrl.nyu.edu/~perlin/demos/quikwriting.html
There have been positive comments towards it on the list before.
Does anyone have the time, motivation and ability to implement this on
Openmoko? It would be very useful for me. :)

Just tried it, and it's very easy to pick up, and it shouldn't be hard to
implement.
I suggest trying the quickwriting 2.1 demo.

Sounds interesting. The only problem is user education.. but if it
works this could be a really good input method for finger input!

Mhmhmh I've tried the two demos (with mouse, of course), but I've 
some problems in writing on it... Expecially some lateral chars aren't 
writtable to me... To write a c, for example, I've to make many tries, 
and I guess they should be really more using a finger.

I've read no docs, where am I wrong in?

I've given a short look to the docs and now it's clear how to write in... :P

So, now I can agree with ramsesoriginal and the others who appreciate 
this systems: it can easily be used for quick finger writing!

Btw, imho we should try to find another letter ordering :P.
