WRITETYPE(1)						      General Commands Manual						      WRITETYPE(1)

NAME

       WriteType - application designed to help students write more easily

SYNOPSIS

       writetype [OPTION] ... FILE

DESCRIPTION

       WriteType  is  a simple word processor designed to help young students write  more easily and accurately. It offers spelling suggestions as
       students type, making the process easier and less frustrating. It also provides the ability to read back text through either an eSpeak or a
       Festival backend. In  addition, there are special tools for teachers, and the entire application is easily translatable.1

       WriteType is Free Software / Open Source, and is released under the GNU GPL license.

OPTIONS

       -l,  --lang
	      Set the language for this session

       -t,  --tts-engine
	      Set the tts engine for this session.  Changes in the settings during this session will override this.

       -?,  --help
	      Display this help and exit

FEATURES

       Word  Completion - As students type, word suggestions appear on the right-hand side of the screen to complete the word being typed.  Click-
       ing on the desired word will finish the word.  WriteType will also learn a student's habits over time and make  more  relevant  suggestions
       based on what has already been written.

       Reading	Back  the  Document - WriteType will read back written text, allowing students to catch errors they may not have caught reading it
       back themselves.

       Highlighting - Sections of the document can be quickly highlighted while typing or while listening to the document being  read  back.  This
       lets students quickly flag areas they need to go back and review.

       Grammar	checking  - WriteType will underline simple grammar and formatting mistakes in the document, and offer to make the necessary revi-
       sion.

       Auto-correction - Common errors, such as typing isnt instead of isn't, will be corrected automatically without the need for intervention.

       Distraction-free mode If the typist has difficulty maintaining concentration while typing, distraction-free mode is an  alternative  inter-
       face that displays full screen and only includes the text box and the list of completions.

       Add  a list of custom words In some situations, the default list of words is not sufficient, so the system allows the user to add new ones.
       Even if the words already exist in the list of words, adding them will bring them to the top of the list of suggestions.
