Probably the best way to see what this program does is to run it but I shall attempt to give you a brief description. The program is designed to be easy to use by people unfamiliar with computers, hence: (Carriage Return) after most prompts produces reasonable starting DEFAULTS. after a prompt will print a description of each option on the screen. Hit RETURN for more HELP. # SET UP The screen is divided into THREE areas: 1. COMMENTS containing instructions relevant to each typing exercise. 2. Keyboard DISPLAY duplicating the QWERTY keyboard on the screen. 3. EXERCISES near the bottom of the screen containing the line you should type and ECHOING the typed keys underneath it. Hit RETURN for more HELP. # OPERATION After initialisation the student types the exercises as shown. Each letter that you are to type is highlighted on the Keyboard Display. To bypass a line or part thereof, a moves you to the next line. To escape from this `EXERCISE MODE' to `COMMAND MODE' type the escape key shown at the top of the screen. You also enter command mode at the end of an exercise, to be prompted for a command. *** NB *** MAKE & USE a cover for your keyboard - A piece of stiff cardboard will usually work. You will learn faster in the end; though a bit frustrating at first. PS. Most HELPs are not this long!! Hit to return to program or to end.
