An Input Method for the Qt Palmtop Environment

)| About |
I decided to create my own input method since I found myself spending too much time on correcting the wrong letters recognized by the Handwriting input method.
Give JumpX a try, I think it is quite usable.

Doesn't need any explanation.
Shift Lock
When the shift key is tapped once, any subsequent keypress switches the
layout back to the lowercase letters after emitting the shiftet letter.
By tapping the shift key twice, it gets locked and the keymap stays in
the shifted state until shift is tapped again.
Sliding
By sliding out of the pressed key area while holding the stylus down,
the capitalized version of the key is emitted. This is a convenient
way for typing single upper case letters. Sliding the space key emitts
a backspace. Sliding of a key in the special character area results in
the number displayed next to the pressed key when slided horizontally.
Sliding these keys vertically gives the shifted character.
Skins
The whole keyboard is made up of seven bitmaps. By replacing them, the
visual appearance of the input method can be customized completely.

If you have made your own skin, send it to me and I will try to put it on this site.
