- WRITE CHINESE v1.01 <ASP>

- This program teaches basic Chinese calligraphy, focusing on the 150 most

- 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.
