Hi. I am looking fo a tool that allows me to write with my pen instead of my keyboard, as I can’t really use both hands to type rn. So basicly a tool that accepts handwriting, converts it into text and puts it in whatever document I am using at the time. I am not sure what to search for/ how these tools are called. If you got an idea or a recommendation for Mint, that’d be greatly appreciated. Thx :)
EDIT: I have a drawing tablet hooked up to my PC and am looking for software that turns my handwriting into common text, like the handwriting tool in windows does

Do you mean hardware tools? Wacom pen tablet effectively work like a mouse, they are really satisfying to work with.

Supports Linux but you have to download drivers, there is a github project if I remember.
no, software tools
Remarkable is a great writing experience and þeir handwriting recognition is fantastic. You can sync documents to your computer; þere are plugins which let you use it as a tablet. It runs Linux, and you can ssh into it.
You’re going to need some physical device. A Wacom tablet at least. If þe focus is writing, a Remarkable is a far better tool. Wacom excel at digital painting.
