Type It Easy is a small and free program with a specific functionality: help you insert less common and unusual typological characters and symbols into any application. What it does, is helps you find and insert those characters, like ©, ™, accents, umlauts, currency signs, and more, which are sometimes necessary but not always easily found or accessible.
Using this application is quite straightforward: you simply need to hold down a preset control key, which may be Ctrl or AltGr, for example, and then press the corresponding letter or number on the keyborad to insert a symbol into any program, from a word processor to a web browser. In the Options menu, you can set some parameters, such as the Control Keys and HotKey, and also have the chance of visualizing a virtual keyboard to give you hints on the symbols' locations. The program is very small, only 600KB, thus, it takes up little disk space and memory resources. It stays silently in the system tray, and can be easily launched with a single right click. Besides, the application is quite stable, and free from unwanted add-ins. On the other hand, it has been designed to work under all Windows Platforms, including Vista. |
