Node.js console typing test. Easy, Med, & Hard Difficulties, Speed graph, Shortcuts

Package Exports

  • tycon

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (tycon) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

tycon recording

$ tycon
  • Test Mode: basic, sentence
  • Test Length (seconds): 10, 30, 60, 120, 180

Additional Test Settings.. y/N

  • Difficulty (basic mode only): easy, med, hard
  • Require Correct Word Entry: y/N
  • Colourblind Mode (blue/green): y/N
  • Randomly Capitalize First Letter (scales with difficulty): y/N

Features

  • Basic Mode: Randomly selected words from 3 difficulties.
  • Sentence Mode: Paragraphs from popular books, including capitalization and punctuation.
  • Restarting Test: ^R Is used to start/re-start a test. Can be used while test is running (will re-random sentence selection)
  • Word Deletion: Ctrl + Backspace is used to delete a typed word. Shift + Home is not supported, nor is Ctrl + W (for Unixers), though I'm considering it.
  • Speed Graph: Every 2 seconds, your average WPM (up to that point) is calculated

To-Do

  • Support custom word lists from file (validate format)
  • Re-do intervaled avg to average in segments, instead of over progress of the test (so chart is more relevant)
  • Record local lifetime stats
  • Launch parameters to define settings
  • User config (settings) file support
  • Record time between all keypresses for consistency data, & display in graph

Text Excerpts

  • The Fellowship of the Ring, J.R.R Tolkein

  • Anna Karenina, Leo Tolstoy
  • The Eye of the World, Robert Jordan
