Command Line Features
|
||
|
|
---------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-The user can choose to type in random mode where a random block is each
|
||
|
|
session is chosen from selected lesson.
|
||
|
|
-And in standard mode, the user types chronologically as the lesson is in
|
||
|
|
the lesson file.
|
||
|
|
-The user can chose to modify any lesson in the lesson file easily.
|
||
|
|
-For a user who will not love to modify the lesson file, a my_own.txt file
|
||
|
|
is available for the user to paste his text file he wants to type.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTE: Text file should contain only ascii 7 bits characters. For this reason,
|
||
|
|
user text may some times look absurd when contains extended ascii characters
|
||
|
|
since program has a function to ignore such characters.
|
||
|
|
-User also can choose to receive a beep for any wrong character typed (may
|
||
|
|
not work on all terminals)
|
||
|
|
-Program has the ability to remember all past settings.
|
||
|
|
-Terminal is manipulated so a user can erase characters right to the beginning
|
||
|
|
of the session line(timing reset) For each wrong character erased, number of
|
||
|
|
errors is decremented by one.
|
||
|
|
-User session timing starts only when he types a first character (wrong or
|
||
|
|
correct)
|
||
|
|
-If the user erases to the beginning of the session, time is reset to zero
|
||
|
|
and starts only as described above.
|
||
|
|
-The last line of each lesson session is marked blue, so user is aware and
|
||
|
|
can take time to review speed details befor estarting the following lesson.
