About Fitaly
------------

The FITALY Keyboard for the Palm Organizer is an ergonomic 
replacement for the standard QWERTY on-screen keyboard. 

The patented Fitaly key arrangement is optimized for pen or 
one-finger entry: the letters ital ne dors and the space - together 
representing 84% of the keys used for normal text - are placed 
in a very tight central area.  Remaining keys are never more than 
two keys away from this central area and each key is placed near 
the keys most likely to follow it in English text.  

The effect is to minimize pen travel. In addition, the layout 
practically eliminates hand movement when typing text. This means 
that you can type with your hand rested on the lower area, moving 
only the fingers holding the pen. 


Installing Fitaly
-----------------

The Palm Fitaly is supplied in two forms.  

The first is as a stand-alone application: FitalyAp.prc 
Installing the application takes two steps:

 1  install FitalyAp.prc
 2  Activate Fitaly in the Fitaly installer application

The second is as a system extension working with HackMaster 
from DaggerWare: FitalyHa.prc. Installing the system extension
takes three steps:

 1  install HackMaster.prc (unless you already have it)
 2  install FitalyHa.prc
 3  Activate Fitaly in HackMaster

Once installed, a tap on "abc" in the Graffiti area pops up
the Palm Fitaly provided you are in a text field.


Uninstalling Fitaly
-----------------

To uninstall Fitaly, first disable it from the Fitaly application
installer screen or from Hackmaster. Then delete it as you do
for any other application. 

Do not try to delete Fitaly without first disabling it, as this 
leave the system in an unstable state.

Using Fitaly
