Long Description:
-----------------
WRITE CHINESE v1.01 <ASP>
This program teaches basic Chinese calligraphy, focusing on the 150 most
frequently encountered characters which constitute approximately 1/3 of all
printed materials. Just as schoolchildren do in China, the student practices
calligraphy by drawing characters on simulated "nine-square box" paper.
The program evaluates each character as it is being drawn, providing
continuous feedback and positive reinforcement incentives.
This program also has quiz options to teach character meanings as well as
Mandarin (Pinyin) and Cantonese (Yale) transliterations.
Requires '286, VGA, mouse, HD
