+It is useful for people who can't use a real hardware keyboard (for
+example for people with disabilities), but you must be able to use
+a pointing device (as a mouse, a trackball, a touchscreen or opengazer).
+
+Florence stays out of your way when you don't need it: it appears on the
+screen only when you need it.  A timer-based auto-click input method is
+available to help to click.")
