And we all read left-handed documents written in SignWriting without noticing too. Left-handed signers write left-handed signing all the time in SignWriting. That is normal. Here's one document on the web: SignWriter Newsletter Spring 1997 Issue https://www.SignWriting.org/spr97p1.html The newsletter is written in left handed signing by Darline Clark Gunsauls. So I was simply asking...since nobody notices the difference much anyway, and since we type, read and write both anyway, why would we need a programming feature to switch back and forth?
