Take a small sheet of transparent sticky backed plastic and punch holes in it
with an office hole punch...peel the backing off the "confetti" and place
small circles of said plastic over letters. It works pretty wellas it covers
most of the character and raises your finger tips off the surface a tad. Yea
I did it yonks ago in school on a beeb.
less fiddly would be high quality "Sello/Scotch tape" pieces.
My wife said buy a character less keyboard and improve your touch
typing...she has only just started using a computer.
