<div>Thanks for the clarification.  There should be a "search by handshape" feature in the email feature of Sign Puddle so that one could search and plop into an email with no gloss without having to retype a sign all the time if it isn't "direction dependent".  Unfortunately ASL and all other signed languages that I know of have "locatives" which will require multiple lanes.  Now we are getting into the nitty gritty of a daily writing system that is beyond a dictionary.</div>  <div> </div>  <div>Charles</div>  <div><BR><BR><B><I>Valerie Sutton <sutton@signwriting.org></I></B> wrote:</div>  <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">SignWriting List  <DIV>February 6, 2006</DIV>  <DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>  <DIV>Hello Charles -</DIV>  <DIV>I assume you mean sending email from SignPuddle?...using glosses? yes. That is much bigger.</DIV>  <DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder!
