Such an integration would provide sugar with an environment that would support those with learning difficulties e.g dyslexia and additionally extend the learners vocabulary as such systems give several numbered options to choose from as you type a given word, when the writer sees the word, selecting with the cursor or typing the number or word then utilises the selected word within the text entry dialog or document.A simple Function key combination switches the system on and off for free typing. --[[User:R Draycott|dgd]] 20Nov2009
