Description:
Al Bunny's Typing Class 1.20 - Al Bunny's Typing Class is a game in nature.
But at the same time, it also intends to be a typing tutor. For most

keyboard. People usually have to switch their attention in between the
monitor screen and keyboard back and forth. This makes the learning
process so inefficient and painful. Some software publishers have created
a few enjoyable typing tutors in the form of game. But none of them could
make typing-learning so quick, efficient, and enjoyable as Al Bunny's
Typing Class does.

of course, exactly what is needed if one is to reach to a true
understanding of the subject. The program allows you to transform the
contents of the Screen and Aperture windows to bring out faint details. If
you think of the window contents as a photograph, the overexposure factor
corresponds to leaving the camera shutter open for a longer time interval.
