Question about fingerspelling -

Hello Anne-Claude, and SignWriting List members -
I hope to take 8 hours or so, to focus on the SignWriter DOS downloads  
page on the web. Some of the posted files were zipped with compression  
software that is quite old, and it is possible that I should re-package  
them with more up-to-date compression software. When I do that job, I  
will also try to prepare the Swiss-French version and post it as  
shareware, Anne-Claude...You are correct that the fingerspelling is  
close to the US and also other fingerspelling around the world, so that  
is not the hard part...it is really just finding the time in my  
schedule to do it...I have to create the Swiss-French version inside a  
special editor made for SignWriter DOS and it has been several years  
since I have used it - so I have to re-teach myself how to create new  
countries in DOS again - But I look forward to it and will tell you  
when it is posted... Thanks for your patience!  Val ;-)
