This paper reviews the design history of SignWriter, a word processor for the SignWriting system. While the primary goal of SignWriter was simply to create a word processor for SignWriting, its development and subsequent use had several beneficial effects on the SignWriting system. Various design aspects of SignWriter are considered in the context of current computing technologies and sign processing development efforts.
