ProtoType is a program designed to help you with your typing in two ways:
- Writing support to improve spelling for people with dyslexia or spelling difficulties
- Fewer keystrokes lead to faster typing if you have a physical disability
Creating sentences and text
ProtoType is used to type text into other programs such as a word processor or email software, helping you to get the sentences right before they get to your main program.
You type into ProtoType, and when the text is correct you send it to the main application.
ProtoType generates lists of suggested words as you type. There are different lists including word completion, next word suggestions, word banks and spelling correction. Here is a complete description of the lists available.
As you type, ProtoType can also highlight spelling errors, capitalise words, replace common spelling mistakes and expand abbreviations.
Choosing the right word
ProtoType will help you select the correct words by reading them aloud, with descriptions of commonly confused words such as homophones. If you have a symbol library then you can also see symbols of words.
Speech feedback gives you the option to hear what you are typing and to hear the text read aloud from ProtoType or other Windows programs.
