(no subject)

After poking around a bit, I found a project on Github for "Quikdroid", an Android implementation of Quikwriting. It's been inactive for years, and the download link went to a site that no longer exists, but the site is preserved on the Internet Archive so the installation file can still be downloaded from there, and it can still be intalled, albeit only by clicking past multiple warnings about it being designed for an obsolete generation of Android. The UI is kind of ugly - the project clearly never got far enough to worry about visual polish - but it works pretty well. There are some bugs; the lower left segment is weirdly finicky, and the Shift key equivalent occasionally gets stuck on for no apparent reason; not huge things, but enough to break the flow when they happen. I don't know if this is going to become an input method I use regularly, but it was fun trying it out again.
