SignWriting List January 24, 2002 Hello Flavio: Thanks for this message - >Val, could you then send the code of the >SignWriting(s) to me. I think I can have a better idea >about the size of the challange if I have a look on >them... By the way, the 4.4 version was programmed in >what language? SignWriter 4.4 is written in Microsoft Pascal 3.1 and Assembly Language, for MS-DOS...old source code.... The symbols were not handled as GIFs. Instead there is a special symbol editor, which I entered symbols into...this then made it possible to rotate and flop thousands of symbols without the user realizing how many symbols there were...the many varations were hidden under certain keys and accessed when needed...that is why it is such a sophisticated program...a real typing system. >And about the other editors that seem to be around... >do you know if the are avalable through internet - or >available at all? Our organization has developed these programs: 1. SignWriter 4.4 in MS-DOS 2. SignBank 2002 for Windows, Macintosh, and Linux (scheduled release: Fall 2002) 3. TrueType Fonts for SignWriting 4. Unicode for SignWriting (just beginning) All other programs are created by others, and you will have to ask them. I know of no other program available at the moment, but if there is one, please tell me! For most of the Brazilian programs, I would suggest asking Antonio Carlos.... Val ;-) |
