It's pretty good actually .. I use it in a gnu/screen session that
opens all the different tutorials in separate windows/tabs so I can
switch easily from one to the other..
I also have a vim session where I can type whatever word is posing
problem a few hundred times until I get it right .. and also
typefortune .. provides random texts from the fortune databases in
gtypist format.

why you should need a gui to practice typing -- a strictly text-mode
activity if there ever was one -- is beyond my comprehension.
