- Operation of the SPEED TEST
-
- When typing during a session the clock starts timing your responses when you
- type the first letter.
-
- While typing you can optionally switch a beeper on and off with the ! key which
- will sound the bell everytime you miss a character.
-
- When you miss-type a character you must retype it correctly before you can
- continue the test. (There is no extra penalty imposed for missed characters).
-
- You may abort a session early by hitting the ESC key at any time but if you do
- this your speed will not be calculated.
-
- At the end of the real test (as opposed to the warm up) your results will be
- written to a file called results.ttx

- Styles
-
- There are several styles of text on which you can be tested. They are stored
- on disk as ordinary text files and have the extension ".ttx"
-
- It is possible to edit these files should you wish to change them. A special
- option called custom has been provided which matches the file custom.ttx
- By editing this file you can add a totally new style of text to the list.
