* Last updated: 25/01/2010
* Percentage of completion: 80%

== Detailed Description ==
In uruguay, we developed activity EscribirEspecial to children handicapped (http://activities.sugarlabs.org/es-ES/sugar/addon/4265).
EscribirEspecial has a system scanning buttons to write and the activity writes on abiword.

When active the scanning, start scanning in a linear, if the user click on box of virtual keyboard, start scanning the buttons (letters) of this line, and again the user click on virtual keyboard and write this letter. This allows for example if the user can press click but can not move mouse or use the default keyboard.

Now, the idea are develop a virtual keyboard for sugar repositories to write on diferent activities or diferent text entries of sugar.

== Benefit to Sugar ==
Users with handicapped will be able to write on diferent activities or diferent text entries of sugar.

== Scope ==
None.
