KeyREP

KeyREP is a word prediction program that makes writing more efficient for those with physical or learning disabilities who use a keyboard to write. Type the first few letters of a word. A prediction list appears from which you select the word you want. KeyREP then types the word into whatever application you are using. Prediction are based on the letter(s) typed, personal preference, and how frequently words are used.

KeyREP contains four English dictionaries, each designed with a specific age group in mind. You can also create your own dictionaries which can contain up to 10,000 words.

KeyREP also features abbreviation expansion, where two or three letters can represent an entire sentence or phrase. Both features help reduce the number of keystrokes needed for typing and can make writing more productive.

When KeyREP and WiVox are used together, WiVox will read each word in the KeyREP prediction list to help you make a word selection. WiVox can also speak letters, words, or sentences typed into any Windows application. KeyREP is compatible with Windows 3.1 and Windows 95.
