It currently has two test modes, words and time: testing how long it takes for you to type a given amount of words and testing how many words you can type in a given amount of time respectively. You can see the options by doing `typr.sh -h` + + +When i say pure POSIX shell, I mean as pure as it can get: no bashisms or gnu flags (asterix here) while avoiding forking to other programs like the plague. Some features I took as shell "builtins", being ones that are builtin to `dash`, so printf was used quite heavily. + +The only exceptions to the no forking rule are using `stty` to configure the terminal (though there could be other ways to do this) and `date` to get accurate time. While I did use the GNU "%N" feature of date to get the time in nanoseconds, this is entirely optional and the program should work without this, though will suffer from slightly less precision. + +Instead of using ncurses (tput) I decided to just embed all of the escape sequences directly in the strings printed. This might make it a bit difficult to open the script in some editors, but it means that there is one less dependency, so hopefully it will run on most places easier. + +I've not tested it on many machines, but I'm curious to see how well it works on different configurations, so please try it out and tell me how it works.
