I used to own a palm m130 PDA for 4 years, so I'm used to those unfamiliar keyboard layouts. When I bought the DS and tried out homebrew for the first time, I was surprised to see that they were all using QWERTY. So I made this as a demo.
I forgot to mention, I'm encouraging other homebrew developers to add this kind of on-screen keyboards in their homebrew apps too.

I'm planning to add scripting functionality either by Lua or Python, and yes, I've considered the feature of switching keyboard layouts. I'm thinking it should be so users can easily make their own keyboard layouts by simply adding/editing some script files.
Thanks for the graphics offer, maybe when things get really busy I'll need all the help I can get. The graphics I made are just pixel-art style versions of icons in
this theme
The next things that'll need additional GUI layout designing is the file save/load dialog box, and the main menu. But I have a lot of coding to do before that.
