Description:
 khwrec is a hand writing recognition tool for
kde. Currently it recognises single character
input, but will hopefully be able to handle fully
joined up handwriting. 

The engine is done, it needs help however
improving the dictionary (turning the codes into
letters). Currently the program puts a lot of
output to stdout. In this there are Letter: acbgd
lines, here acbgd is the code of the letter, these
are matched against regular expressions in
dictionary.cpp. Please look when letters arent
found and try and work out why and email me
changes. For more information on regular
expressions google qregexp.

I have only tested this on my system kde 3.5 and a
recent qt.

To install the standard:
./configure
make
make install

Release 0.1_pre1

Works for single character recognition. 

Bugs / Todo
