Windows

We have not yet built a Windows version of the keyboard. If someone out there knows how to use Tavultesoft Keyman and can create a keyboard for our Windows community, please let me know.

Also, since I do not know my way around Windows very well, if someone wanted to rewrite our instructions for Windows (including screen shots) and help the community that way, that would be great.
