Type practise is a simple program for improving typing speed by copying
lines. The program is started by running typepractise inputFile, where
inputFile is the text file you want to use to practise.
Once started, you will be shown the first line, which you must type out, when you reach the end of the line you will be given your speed (in characters/minute and words/minute) and how many mistakes you made.
To install for all users run make install, to install for just the current
user run make install_user. The first will require super user privileges
and installs in /usr/bin, the second will install in ~/bin.
Alternatively, you can copy typepractise.py somewhere that your shell can
find it.
