    <description descriptionType="Abstract">&lt;p&gt;The HamNoSys package consists of three parts:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;HamNoSys Unicode font&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;HamNoSys Keyboard layout (macOS only)&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;HamNoSys Palette App&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The documentation folder contains the macOS keyboard layout in different formats. The layout is also available as a menu item in the Palette app.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The HamNoSys handshapes chart is available as a menu item in the app as well. If you want to try it in a web browser, you find the German and English version in this distribution.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To install on macOS:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Select &amp;ldquo;Go to folder&amp;hellip;&amp;rdquo; from the Finder&amp;#39;s &amp;ldquo;Go&amp;rdquo; menu. Type in&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;/Library/Fonts/&lt;/code&gt;&amp;nbsp;and click on &amp;ldquo;Open&amp;rdquo;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Fonts folder opens. Drag the file&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;HamNoSysUnicode.ttf&lt;/code&gt;&amp;nbsp;here. (You may be asked to provide an administrator&amp;#39;s password to get this done.)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Now switch to the enclosing folder (called&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;Library&lt;/code&gt;) by choosing &amp;ldquo;Enclosing Folder&amp;rdquo; from the Finder&amp;#39;s &amp;ldquo;Go&amp;rdquo; menu.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Within that folder, you should find a subfolder called&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;Keyboard Layouts&lt;/code&gt;. If it does not exist, create it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Move the file&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;HamNoSys.bundle&lt;/code&gt;&amp;nbsp;into that folder.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Finally, move the&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;HamNoSys Palette.app&lt;/code&gt;&amp;nbsp;into the&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;Programs&lt;/code&gt;&amp;nbsp;folder.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;(If you prefer, you can also install to&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;~/Library/Fonts&lt;/code&gt;&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;~/Library/Keyboard Layouts&lt;/code&gt;, in which case the font and the keyboard layout are only available to the currently logged-in user.)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Open the System Preferences and switch to Keyboard. Select the &amp;ldquo;Input Sources&amp;rdquo; tab and select &amp;ldquo;Show Input menu in menu bar&amp;rdquo;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Now click the &amp;ldquo;+&amp;rdquo; button in the bottom left of the window. Choose &amp;ldquo;Others&amp;rdquo; in the left pane, and then &amp;ldquo;HamNoSys&amp;rdquo; on the right. Click &amp;ldquo;Add&amp;rdquo;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Now you find the HamNoSys key layout in Input menu in the right part of the menu bar. (You can also rotate through the active keyboards by pressing command-space and keeping the command pressed.)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;(In older versions of macOS you find the Input Sources in the &amp;rdquo;Language and Text&amp;rdquo; or &amp;ldquo;International&amp;rdquo; system preference.)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Now you can launch the app HamNoSys Palette.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In the HamNoSys window, you can type a HamNoSys string.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you are familiar with the HamNoSys keyboard layout, switch to it with cmd-space or choose HamNoSys from the Input Menu. Otherwise, just click on the five-fingers button to open the palette of HamNoSys symbols. The symbols are distributed over six panels corresponding to the context they are most often used in.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you have entered a valid HamNoSys string, you may want to check it by sending it to the avatar: Just click on the avatar button once you have launched the SiGML Service Player. (If you have not yet installed the JASigning avatar player, you find it at&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;http://vh.cmp.uea.ac.uk/index.php/JASigning&lt;/code&gt;.)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Via the &amp;ldquo;File&amp;rdquo; menu, you can open the HamNoSys Handshapes chart as well as a table of all HamNoSys characters.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To install on Windows:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Move the&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;HamNoSys Palette&lt;/code&gt;&amp;nbsp;folder to your Applications folder. To start the program, open&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;HamNoSys Palette.exe&lt;/code&gt;&amp;nbsp;within that folder.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To install on Linux:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Movie the&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;HamNoSys Palette&lt;/code&gt;&amp;nbsp;folder to your Applications folder. To start the program, open&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;HamNoSys Palette&lt;/code&gt;&amp;nbsp;within that folder.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Web font&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In the folder&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;web&lt;/code&gt;&amp;nbsp;you find the HamNoSys font in the usual webfont formats as well as a css style sheet showing how to use them. The HamNoSysInput.html shows the same layout as the palette app on a web page, but cannot command the avatar.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Changing the keys in the HamNoSys Palette app&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you want to add more keys to the palette or just re-arrange the existing ones, that is easy to achieve. In the&amp;nbsp;&lt;code&gt;Preferences&lt;/code&gt;&amp;nbsp;folder, you find the file &lt;code&gt;de.uni-hamburg.sign-lang.hamnosys-palette-layout.txt&lt;/code&gt;. Open it with any text editor.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The first line is a scaling factor applying to all button sizes and positions.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;All the other lines define one button each, they consist of three numbers and a text, separated by tabs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;The first column is the panel the button shall appear on (numbered from left to right starting with 1).&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;The second and third column are the x and y coordinate of the button.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;The fourth column is the names of the HamNoSys characters to be assigned to the button, separated by commas.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
