Hello Meryeme and Stefan!

THANK YOU, Stefan, for this gift of instruction on how to install SignWriter DOS into DOSBox on Windows...this is so beautifully done. I love the little men, like cartoons, on your web page, that were all created with the SignWriter DOS program, isn't that right?

These are charming!

And I am so glad to learn that Meryeme has succeeded thanks to your instruction...Thank you for teaching us, Stefan...Your help with DOSBox on Windows is needed -

Would you like to translate a version into English later? I would be glad to help with that, if you wish...later on...not right now...but I think it would be a good PDF that could be downloaded on that page for English speakers someday...

Val ;-)

I installed the DOSbox but I have problem in some DOS commands like 'md \sw' in order to create f directory but I will keep trying I think that is because I am using window 7 but I am not sure. and by the way I used the ASL SignPuddle Dictionary and I really like but I don't wanna use it in my project because I need to enter the sign writing manually because I have to verify first if the entered character belong to the list of sign-writing language or not and that is what we call it (the lexical analyzer :-) and it is the first step to realize a compiler I will let you updated of my researches
