您是否正在寻找一种方法来帮助您的触摸板计算机提高工作效率？ 快速浏览一下Synaptics的新应用程序Scrybe，您可以利用它来增强其功能。

Touchpad devices have become increasingly interesting as they’ve included support for multi-touch gestures.  Scrybe takes it to the next level and lets you use your touchpad as an application launcher.  You can launch any application, website, or complete many common commands on your computer with a simple gesture.  Scrybe works with most modern Synaptics touchpads, which are standard on most laptops and netbooks.  It is optimized for newer multi-touch touchpads, but can also work with standard single-touch touchpads.  It works on Windows 7, Vista, and XP, so chances are it will work with your laptop or netbook.

触摸板设备已经包含了对多点触摸手势的支持，因此变得越来越有趣。 Scrybe将其提升到一个新的水平，并允许您将触摸板用作应用程序启动器。 您可以用简单的手势启动任何应用程序，网站，或在计算机上完成许多常用命令。 Scrybe可与大多数现代Synaptics触摸板配合使用，这是大多数笔记本电脑和上网本的标准配置。 它针对较新的多点触摸板进行了优化，但也可以与标准的单点触摸板一起使用。 它可以在Windows 7，Vista和XP上运行，因此有可能与笔记本电脑或上网本一起使用。

Here we drew an “M”, which opens our default Music player.  As soon as you finish the gesture and lift up your finger, Scrybe will open the application or website you selected.
