Ohhhh!  Wicked!

This is good training and, alas, I am quite slow.  The default speed of
280 (56 WPM) was just a wee bit beyond my ability!  :-(  I set it to
100 (20 WPM) and that was much better.  Right off the bat I hit a high
of 120 and then sunk down quite a bit.  Practice.  Practice. Practice!

Thank you!  It installed without complaint on my Sid box.

I'm not a DD, but I think this would be a very worthwhile addition.  I
like the way it changes the sent speed up or down depending on one's
copy.
