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.
