Hi,
I'm totaly new to this forum / list and was wondering if anyone could
help me through a project I am aiming at.
Any help in the way of pointers would be a great start.
I am attempting to produce some software that will do the same or
similar job as ez-key does on a windows os.
It interacts with programmes on the os via a switch which is the only
means of interaction that this disabled chap can use.
In effect it allows him access via x and y co-ordinates managed by
clicking or holding the switch untill the x co-ordinate is accessed,
then doing similar for the y co-ordinate to be accessed. Once in the
correct place a visual onscreen keyboard can be accessed for entering
data either into form fields or onto notepad / word or the like.
I have a little programming background but only in Perl/CGI, php
javascript.
Thanks for any help.
Kind Regards.
Glen.
