This small utility allows you to grow your typing skills in soft and non-annoying manner. It tries to behave closely to proprietary VerseQ application -- adaptive typing tutor which dynamically changes exercises to help trainee to learn hard places thoroughly.

The most easy way via pypi:

pip install typetrainer

or:

easy_install typetrainer

Or you can install from sources:

python setup.py build
sudo python setup.py install

Or run directly from sources without any install:

./run.py

Also you need pygtk to be installed.

Simply run:

typetrainer

After start you can click right mouse button at keyboard to activate popup menu. It contains:

• Tutor generator selector.
• Keyboard selector.
• Recent files list.
• Open file dialog item.

Tutor generator needs utf-8 encoded file to make exercises for you. You should provide it via command line or activating Open dialog.

Personally I prefer to run type trainer with fortunes.

• Python tutor.
• Statistic plots.
• Advanced Russian tutor.
