Is there a way to force just a single character from the onscreen keyboard
<p>I'd like to invoke the Android onscreen keyboard to just retrieve a single character. Is there a way to do this?</p>

<p>I am working on a hangman application and need to take input one character at a time. The plan is to have a text area for each guessed letter, and display the soft keyboard when the user selects a text area for which to guess.</p>
