[gentoo-user] 10 finger typing trainer in portage?

[gentoo-user] 10 finger typing trainer in portage?

[krgn]

  Hello,

I am looking for a programm that I can practice 10 finger typing for 
gentoo/linux. Does anyone have a recommendation, or is there even one in 
portage? Does it make sense what I would like to say?

thanks,

Karsten

I know only one - gtypist. It's a console program. I've had it installed 
for a long time but never actually used it since I already can type pretty 
well. I should practice more to reduce errors though ;)

Oh wait.. I just checked out the gtypist homepage and found there a long 
list of free typing tutors: http://www.gnu.org/software/gtypist/
Don't know how many of these are in portage though.

great! that's what I was looking for, ktouch is probably cool but needs 
kdelibs, which take too long too compile :)

no prob. Just ask a friend who has KDE installed to send you a tarball 
of his installation.


:)))

I have KDE installed.  I also have cable for my connection.  Hmmmmm,
makes you wonder.

Wouldn't it need some of the files from kdelibs though?  Looks like it
would not start if they were missing.

I think the previous poster was messing about - I think he meant the  
WHOLE installation.  ;)

But if you wanted to do something like this it would probably work if  
Karsten emailed you the output of `emerge -p ktouch` and then you ran  
`quickpkg` for each package in that list.

But I'd rather start by trying app-misc/gtypist
