[senit] keyboards

There was a bit of software that I got a demo of a while back called
'Keyguard' - this was a software keyguard - i.e. it got rid of next-door-key
presses... This might be a solution (combined with keyboard accessibility
tweaks?)...

I'm not sure where i got it though... sorry... I can probably dig out the
email/CD if needed... You also might be able to do the same thing with
AutoHotKey/AutoIt if so inclined! 

Cheers.

Simon

Hello

Can anyone suggest a solution for a pupil who finds the keyboard easier to
use than the joystick but keeps catching his fingers on the keyguard?
He can't use the keyboard without the guard as he presses every key on the
way to the one he wants.  I've tried him with an on-screen keyboard but
that's even slower than his typing.  Does anyone make a rubber keyguard?
