  • Abstract
    Results are presented of a study involving the design and testing of specialized interfacing that allows the severely neuromotor disabled person to operate computerized programs such as Lotus 123, Multimate, WordPerfect, and DBASE III. The use of the RPM system and a series of chained windows is discussed. Of particular interest is the development of memory-resident utilities which serve as specialized interfaces, allowing the transfer of data between programs.<>
