ASLAP 2020

ASLAP599 splashscreen

ASLAP was a freeware (Windows only) program developed by South African ASLer Kevin Pietersen to assist with ASL play. Sadly the program no longer works on modern computers and Kevin has disappeared from the ASL scene, so it's unlikely it will ever be updated to be compatible. Which is where ASLAP 2020 comes in. This is a recreation I have made in VB2019 (again, Windows only) that provides the basic functionality of ASLAP.

The ZIP file contains the basic program, plus the original help files converted to run on modern versions of Windows. Simply extract the contents of the ZIP file to your computer and double-click the ASLPAP 2020.exe to start.

I hope you enjoy it.
