This one may not "look" like a typewriter, but it's all there.

christian,
 
if you want to write a multi-line typewriter, the "fun part" is to handle virtual word-wrapping.
 
i started to work on such a beast once, but i lack some free time to continue:

the idea is that if you can write text over a bitmap, it's a door open to, say, "volumetric typewriters"...
