Charles <<<< SignWriting List October 13, 2000 Hello Charles - Thanks for this nice message. The Brazilian database you mention sounds terrific. It is a little different, I guess, because it sounds like they are storing language in their database, and actually typing language. In the SymbolBank, I am not storing language...there are no signs in the database...only symbols and how they work... Later I hope to add another database called SignBank, which will start working with complete signs and language. Two very different databases ;-) -- Val ;-) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Valerie Sutton Visit the SignWritingSite: https://www.SignWriting.org |
