Description:

Turns text upside down as it is typed, using the Python upside down thing found elsewhere in the repo. I made it using wxGlade because I was trying to learn to use it. You can paste text in.

I have only tested it in ubuntu 8.10 (amd64 version, if it makes a difference).

UPDATE: I tested it in Leopard, it mostly works, you have to resize the window before it will show properly, but after that it works fully and properly, i'm not sure why this is happening.
