I am still working (as Ihave time) on my virtual keyboard (for the disabled). The thing will do many actions, have many adjustable features and feedback, and be shareware.
Font manipulation, in the case of onscreen keyboards especially, is an issue in a cross-platform situation. Although I've been told that a piece of software should be identical in all platforms, I'm beginning to see that may not be what I should be doing, i.e., I should take advantage of whatever will help the user on whatever platform they use. I intend to offer distribution on all platforms available on the same CD ROM. I don't see a way to make them all identical in operation and still take advantage of the uniqueness of each os. >From a professional outlook, does anyone have any philosophical thoughts which pertain to public release of shareware on this point? It may make for more work, but I think it will be worthwhile.
