The „Sutton SignWriting“ system is a practical writing system for deaf sign languages. The symbols describe shape, location and movement of hands as well facial expressions and other signing information. „SignWriter Java 1.5/Swing“ is being developed as the successor to „SignWriter DOS“, a program for typing and editing „SignWriting“ texts, used by school children, teachers, linguists and Deaf people. The new Java version 1.5 „Tiger“ is used in development and Swing as the graphical user interface.
