[tlug] [OT] Software for handicapped people

[Niels Kobschätzki <n.kobschaetzki@example.com>]

Hi!

We have a new student in Japanese sciences who is that much  
handicapped that he can't even use a mouse. One of my language  
teachers asked me if I could do some research to find a software for  
him that allows him to input Japanese. From what I've been told he is  
using some kind of on-screen-keyboard but I bet it is something  
better for getting him into greater speed typing something.
Do any of you know any handicapped people or have any experiences in  
this what software is available for handicapped people who can't type  
to input in moderate speed Japanese? Software platform isn't that  
important in the beginning but I'm searching something to start my  
"research"  for finding something (I bet he's using Windows) because  
I have no experiences in this area and do not even know the right  
termini to begin with.
Any help appreciated.
