SLanT - Sign Language Teacher (formerly Sign Language Tester) FREEWARE Version 1.06 Copyright (c) 1997-1999 Fernando J. Sosa ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This program was done in an effort to teach myself the sign language alphabet. It worked very well! I hope you enjoy it and find it as useful as it was for me. This program may be freely distributed. Please include all the files that came with it. I got the Gallaude font from the web and is also free. NOTES: - SLanT copies the Gallaude font into your Windows Font directory. - Gallaude is a Sign Language Alphabet TrueType font I downloaded from the web. - All the words that appear are in the words.txt file. You can add any words you like to this file using Windows Notepad. I made it this way on purpose so you can make the words as difficult or easy as you wish. - If you find this program most useful, and feel like you wish to reward me for my efforts, please do so by sending me thanks by email. I do not want money in return... unless you insist :-) - This program is advertiser based. Similar to webpages on the net, revenue is generated with banners. I understand that many people do not like the advertising, but the reality is that revenue has to be generated somehow. Otherwise, time (which translates into money) cannot be spent upgrading this software. If you want an advertising-free SLanT, please send a check or money order for US$10.00 to the address below. FINAL NOTE: - If you send me an email, I can keep you updated of any new features I add to SLanT.
