Hi Bill,

Nice, Thanks :)

These days I am currently too tired after day work to do something
useful.
I've take a look at the code and noticed a partial workaround that
could be helpful for the current 0.9.23 version:

scaling up the 5 btnsm_***.png images should render the onscreen
kerboard bigger, however the font size will not be altered by this
change.
So if the problem is to identify the letters this will not prove
useful, instead if the problem is precision of the eye tracker to point
to a small button, then it could help.

HTH
Pere
