An introduction to the keyboard As we approach the end of the summer term, many practitioners are beginning to focus on the computer keyboard. All computers have some form of bundled, basic word processor. Next comes the free processors you can download; the best of these is FreeText from Kudlian. This is similar in functionality to WordPad but also allows graphics to be imported and has a spell checker, large friendly tool bar and a word bank. Finally there are the purchased word processors such as Microsoft Word, Textease etc.
