Jingle Keyboard

Jingle Keyboard is a unique novelty desktop program that can make your typing sound like a real typewriter (for those of us who remember REAL typewriters). The program is a simple install that that runs in the task tray, and with a single left-click toggles on or off. A right-click on the tray icon pops up a menu. Choosing the options interface shows a tabbed dialog box where preferences can be customized. In addition to typing and carriage returns, Jingle Keyboard also lets users assign sounds to the Esc and function keys, and even to mouse clicks. Users can choose from different sound schemes, including skirmish (little bangs and booms like gunfire) and bird singing. And now the program is free!
