Shrimple is a method of "multi-character fingerspelling" with the entire keyboard rather than just the left hand and vowels. It uses an orthographic theory similar to the Velotype, but on the typical WSI stenography layout. Shrimple can be toggled on and off with strokes, or instead used with a dedicated key.

You can find its dictionary at https://github.com/StenoHarri/steno-Python-dictionaries/blob/main/Shrimple-theory.py. As it is a Python dictionary, you will need the plover-python-dictionary plugin for it to work.
