Staring at Harris mainframe assembly language core dumps on reams of green bar paper... does things to a man. ;-) HTML5 and Unicode are wonderful toys. Go play. My notes and early efforts on this go back to 1979. Anyone is welcome to them. It does take quite a bit of effort to transmit, so patience is a virtue here. (P.S. Don't overlook color.) (P.P.S. Or animation.) --- Edit: You'd be surprised how easy input becomes. It removes a huge mental load from context switching (e.g. hitting the same button to get Control F4, Control W, Apple W, Alt F Alt C, etc.). Use a few touchpads which can change the symbols based on current context, and baby - you got a stew goin'. Take care. |
