HAND & EDITOR will be 'merged' very soon. We still have to decide the concrete terms. It may be the case that depending on the device (touchable vs desktop) the default mode is handwriting or palette based.
If you want to discuss licensing terms the best option is that you send a message to sales@wiris.com

One other thing, which may also relevant for the Maths editor. Is there a way to chose upright (rather than italic) lower-case greek letters?
I appreciate the convention for maths variables is to use italic lower case greek letters and that you already have an upright lower case pi constant, but upright lower-case greek characters would be useful for some chemical nomenclature, physical constants etc.

That feature is not activated in the CHEMISTRY PALETTE. Hence you should be have to upright lower-case greek letters.
You can have a try in the demo http://www.wiris.com/plugins/demo/chemistry/
Aplogise if this issue has been raised up.. i try to make sense of the above dicussion without success. I am very new to moodle and do not understand technical language too much. I am trying to create a maths course
in moodle and i wish to install this plugin. I had succefully installed WIRIS plugin filter and WIRIS plugin for Atto editor. However when i try to install WIRIS quizzes at first it prompts me to manually update the plugin type. And after i chose 'Question type' i am still unable install. I get this error prompt.
Validating qtype_type ... Error
[Error] File version.php not found [null]
Installation aborted due to validation failure
Unfortunately, that installation method is not currently possible for WIRIS quizzes.
You need to install WIRIS quizzes manually as described at http://www.wiris.com/en/quizzes/docs/moodle/install
Please check if WIRIS is present at http:///admin/settings.php?section=editorsettingsatto under "Toolbar config".
You should see a line "math = wiris", if it is not present please add it.
I see some JS errors in Chromes console (attached) which is referring to the only button (HTML) to be rendered AFTER the WIRIS button:

If I remove WIRIS from toolbar config, everything else renders fine and the above JS error doesn't appear.
Filter is enabled correctly, MathJax is disabled and the editor and buttons appear correctly on TinyMCE editor.
Anyone have any ideas??

When select that error, the following line is highlighted within the above JS file:
Line 400: xhttp.open("GET", urlChecker, false);
Thanks for your feedback and sorry for the inconvenience.
This issue would be fixed in our next release (available next week). You can downgrade to our 4.7.0 version or - if you want - install our development release (development branch in GitHub repositories).
Best regards,
I've just got it working actually. The following defaults weren't autofilled on installation in the filter settings page. I copied the default values into the corresponding boxes and it's working now!
Service host
filter_wiris | imageservicehost
Default: www.wiris.net
Service path
filter_wiris | imageservicepath
Default: /demo/editor/render
