/hV,
ehnI nMz on H /SEvIan bOrd?
I looked up the Ikonboard program on the web and saw that it was a program that runs on a server.
Unfortunately, I do not have access to a server! All this high-speed access and I am forbidden to
host anything on the web!
For all,
The following is in Junior.ttf, a form of Quickscript whose font can be downloaded from the Read_Alpahbet fonts. It was adapted from the nice Jerome font so that the characters do not touch. This makes it easier for me to read the Quickscript.
F ylO sY H nU listiN fOr a cOrdiN kIbOrd!
I will need some directions to see how that works!

Onderwerp: [shavian] Typing Shavian has never been easier!
In the Quickscript group on http://groups.yahoo.com/Read_Alphabet we have been discussing about a keyboard driver that would simplify typing in Quickscript, without having to use that shift-key. Take a look at the discussions through the website under the subject 'Macbeth'.
Please don't ignore this, this is rather revolutionary stuff for the Shavian and Quickscript Computer world! Give it a look. I don't have much time to explain everything, but I'm sure you can figure it out yourself, if not, others may want to help.
Anyway, here is the message I posted to the Quickscipt group (please install the Jerome Font first):
________________________________
Ok, cuz no-one has tried to create a driver yet, I have skipped my homework and created this. It is far from perfect, and could use some fixes. You only need the normal Jerome font and www.tavultesoft.com <http://www.tavultesoft.com> 's Keyman, the Win 3.11 version, which does work under win '95+ . I dunno about other operating systems. http://www.tavultesoft.com/keyman/downloads/keyman32.exe is the url of the program.
You will type in a roman reform scheme, based on Newromaji (it's not really 100% real Newromaji, but anyway, it works)
Take a look into the .kmn file with a text editor to get an idea how it works.

I have never typed so fast in QS. I'm not even a fluent reader/writer in kwikskript, but this is really going to be interesting.
This file can use some fixing, but you can also come up with a different scheme of roman writing that gets converted into QS. Perhaps somebody can create a more efficient scheme. I have put c under c, x under S, u under M and q under N because those sounds occur quite often and a digraph would not be needed, 'cuz there were still some letters left.
AND perhaps we will one day have a driver that automatically converts text to proper senior Quickscript without the user actually paying attention to it.
I have posted a similar message to the Shavian group.

I have been having fun with the keyboard driver Ewout told us about.
It helps me to type faster. I have uploaded the first chapter of a
favorite book to the files/texts part of the board. It is called
Holes Ch 1.
Ewout and I are going separate ways about the contents of the
driver. He is favoring a newromanji keyboard. I am just modifying
the shavian keyboard so that it seems more natural to me for quickly
typing. It also reduces the number of capital letters
significantly.
The mapping I am experimenting with includes the following:
"s" + "h" > "S"
"n" + "g" > "N"
"z" + "z" > "Z"
"j" > "J"
"y" > "j"
"a" + "a" > "A"
"o" + "o" > "U"
"o" + "w" > "Q"
"a" + "h" > "y"
"e" + "a" > "I"
"a" + "i" > "E"
"I" > "F"
"o" + "u" > "M"
"o" + "y" > "q"
"a" + "w" > "Y"
"o" + "r" > "P"
"e" + "r" > "x"
"U" > "V"
But the good news about the driver is that you can modify it anyway
you like for your own tastes and preferences.
I plan to get a page out on the web describing how this can be done
in the next couple weeks - but after Thesis and finals.
Again, please take a look at the "Holes" text. I am open to lots of
criticism on my spelling methods. They take a little from
quickscript and mostly are from shavian.

I think if someone could come up with a way of typing the individual
sounds like "t,h" for thoth (thigh) and "t,h,e" for they, it would help
roman alphabet users to both think and read in shavian as they type.
hmm, maybe what we need is a forty key keyboard. :)
