This program will help you if you know how to type or are
learning.  First goto the OPTIONS menu and pick which type
of lesson you want. Right now there's two - phrase and 
alphabet.  The phrase lesson writes a commonly used typing
practice phrase twice.  The alphabet option types the 
alphabet which you are not timed on.  The alphabet option 
is for new typists who are not familiar with the keyboard 
and the key placement.  In this mode a help screen is shown 
at the bottom for which hand and finger to use for each 
letter.  The phrase option is timed and will record your 
score in wpm (words per minute).  If there are any errors 
you must subtract them from your score or you can backspace
and correct any errors before you get to the end of the 
phrase line.  The lesson is over when you reach the ending 
column of the top window. After you pick your option, click 
FILE START. Your fingers should be placed on the bold letters
shown on the screen.
