<empty>Writing with Symbols 2000 version 2.6

WWS is a flexible pictorial writing tool

The program has four sections

 

The Talking Symbol Processor:

Words are automatically illustrated as you type. A single key press can show you the alternatives for any particular word, and you can easily change the symbol set you are using. It is easy to make symbol materials, and great for beginner writers. There is a pictorial spell checker in all of the sections.

The Talking Word Processor:

This works as any word processor, with the addition that you can view the symbol for any word as you wish - either temporarily, to check the meaning, or as a way of adding just a few symbols to a page. The program speaks as you type (letters, words or sentences) or you can hear the writing spoken afterwards "on demand".

Grids for Printing:

Using grids you can make a vast range of teaching and communication materials including time tables, rotas, worksheets, communication books and games. Grid cells can have single words, symbols, or symbol sentences. You can vary the layout to suit your task, with either regular or irregular cells.

Grids for writing

Grids for Writing:

People who want to write using symbols or text can simply click with a mouse or switch in a grid cell. A grid cell can have letters, single words, pictures or complete phrases. Other cells can have commands or controls, such as delete, new paragraph etc. A set of grids (called an environment) can be linked to give access to large relevant vocabularies for individual or group use.
