Creating an electronic hieroglyphic dictionary has presented some interesting challenges. It needs to be capable of displaying a mixture of langauge outputs; English, Hieroglyphic, Transliteration and Coptic.
The dictionary has been build and indexed to be fast to search allowing you to find results quickly. There are now 25,000 entries but more are added all the time and corrections and updates are being made. The dictionary contains references to source, examples, and can be searched using English, Egyptian, Coptic or Transliteration (MdC).
The website has been updated to include plans for the new SignWriter Online Service which is being built in 2018.
The new facebook group and twitter feed is now live so please follow us or join our group. This will allow us to keep SignWriter's users up to date and get feedback on new features.
In preparation for the next set of updates the application has been built using the latest compiler. Beta 2.3 is a Windows 64-bit native application.
