Graffiti
is add-on software for text entry which replaces the built-in handwriting
recognition software. Graffiti works with a simplified version
of the existing alphabet. The user enters pre-defined strokes for each letter,
Graffiti then translates that stroke into the corresponding text character
on the computer screen. Testing has revealed that most users can
learn to enter these strokes fast enough to achieve more than 30
words per minute with 100% accuracy.
A demo version is available.
