This is an expansion of the QuickType keyboard to
cover the entire silkscreen area. Expanding the
stamp area changes the two control columns in the
current QuickType to two 5x3 key areas.

The left set of additional keys is used as a control key
area. The silkscreen buttons are remapped here,
along with other 'control' keys, (Tab, CapsLock,
Command Stroke, Punctuation Shift, Move Left, Move
Right, Previous Field and Next Field)

The right set of additional keys is used for a 10-key
number pad. The Backspace and Enter keys nestle
above and below the number pad.

The expanded QuickType keyboard will still allow you
to activate hacks and use features that require a
swipe between the silkscreen buttons. Simply swipe
as if the QuickTypeStamp didn't exist (don't swipe
between the small keys on the stamp).

The current keyboard default layout is an OPTI layout,
but can be reconfigured to any of the other layouts.

Please note that this expansion has 46 configurable
keys, so cannot use the 35 kay .PDB databases
distributed with QuickType. As you come up with
your own customized layouts please post them here
so others can use them.

    One additional note. Horizontal swipes between the original
    silkscreen buttons are not passed through to the system.
    If you have a hack or feature that requires a swipe between
    home and calc, or between menu and find please e-mail me
    and I will add the code to allow these swipes to be passed
    through. My e-mail is mike.onines at juno.com
