One os the last jobs I had was at the
"Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Crippled Children"
(now just "Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children") We didn't
see these children as 'crippled', just physically challanged..
Anyway.. I worked in the Research Department and one of the projects
we worked on was interface devices for a computer. We came across
a word processing package that used a mouse, but didn't run under windows..
The other project involved using a second computer to input text to
the first computer (using a mouse, trackball, etc..) at the DOS level
so it could be used with any package.. You might try them at
(214) 559-7877 and ask for David Ross, he was the main deveolper for
this project.. He is a nice guy and might be able to help you :)
