Well, I wrote to the developer for status.  We will see if he answers.  When 
he does I will post it here.

Well the program was in alpha in March, and it's called keystroke for Mac.
So I'm having a difficult time tracking down the web site of the developer.
It works with VoiceOver.  I have written the person who sent it to our team,
but they haven't answered yet.  I have a copy of the software, but no Mac to
install it on.  I will check the program documentation today and try to
locate the developer or a home page.  Googling keystroke as you can imagine,
did not really help.

There is an accessible typing program for the Mac that is currently in Beta.

I have the information at work, so can't post it till Monday night.

This is one of the big disadvantages of Mac.  I have never heard of an
accessible touch typing program.  I would recommend that you partition the
hard drive so you can run Windows and OS 10 on the same computer.
