Does Touch Typer support Unicode like Typing Trainer?

and a bug, that whenever you end your lesson by typing all the text, Typing Trainer 1.0rc3 crashes. both with unicode (hindi) and english text.

That's a confirmed bug, I'll fix it ...

Yes, Touch Typer does work with Unicode, but there's a drawback since X11 does not support full Unicode with their Keysyms, the unicode support is therefore somewhat limited for the moment.

X11 already appears to have a fix for this, I'll make the necessary changes and then there will be full Unicode support in touchtyper as well.

Just compiled with the wrong pointers :)

okay, but Typing Trainer must have to have an option or 'Settings' to set the font. I have to edit 3 .cpp files and change 'Courier' to 'mangal' which is mangal.ttf for hindi and recompile.

under settings also, time limit and other stuff needed to be configured.

while typing if the user/typist does a mistake say he types x instead of y then the text 'x' shown above should get highlighted with a different color much like ktouch.

I originally chose Courier, because the display needs to have a fixed width font. I concurr, that this needs to be set in the configurations options.

Observations well noted, thanks.

Sorry for the mixup, but the links were still pointing to older files. The pointers have now been fixed, and are pointing to the correct versions of the programs.

Again, sorry for the mixup.

is this ktouch? or not?

No, it's not ktouch ... the main program uses quite a different approach to typing. The touch typer part, is merely a small part of the suite.

The main program has been converted to Unicode, it's in the CVS now. The other two will be converted, and then a new release will be made.

I am eagerly waiting for next release after 1.0rc2. I am visiting daily to see whether you've released the unicoded supported Typing Trainer. Please, Please, Please, I am dying to see Unicode Enabled Typing Trainer. Thanks.

I'm working on it, but I need to replace a class to do it. A class that uses STL, must be replaced to use Qt instead, to traverse unicode texts.

I'll change the text to Unicode ... that's a good suggestion, and will be actuall in the next days. I'll consider the other suggestions, and try implement them as soon as possible.

Unicode would be really nice, so we could add texts in other languages.. Still I have a question about keyboard layout. Is it possible to create modules for non-latin alphabeth?

Report

hanseno

It shouldn't be necessary ... the program reads the current layout of the keyboard, directly from X Window. You should see on the screen, the same layout as is on the keyboard. If there is a difference, let me know.

OK, just compiled and tested Typing Trainer. I Love its interface. Unfortunately it doesn't support Unicode text which is saved as Unicode text file. Please I need unicode to enable Hindi typing test!!!

instead of CTRL+O why not show errors at runtime (while typing)? that would be more intuitive.

And Open (ctrl+O) means open a file/exercise for a user, typing trainer's open behavior is not expected, that is it shows typing errors. Please try to make errors appear in red color during runtime typing. thanks.

Thank you, Typing Trainer sound better than KTouch, and especially if you can allow UTF-8 encoding, so that many different languages can be supported by TypingTrainer. I can add Hindi, and Telugu support to Typing Trainer, by creating lessons. What a unicode Typing Trainer needs to show:

1. Actual Text (language text) in first row as in Language keyboard layout. (??????)
2. Key to be pressed to get the language character in the US keyboard layout. (ufvdor)

3. Entry area where text get entered

simply, 3 rows to get working with international Typing Trainer :)

unlike:

1. Text displayed to be typed
2. space to enter the text (which is displayed above).

Thank you, and good luck in your efforts.
