Clone this repository:
git clone /~https://github.com/yourusername/typing-simulator.git cd typing-simulator -
Install the required packages:
pip install -r requirements.txt
The application provides several commands through its command-line interface:
To see all available language dictionaries:
python main.py list-dictionaries
To search for a specific dictionary:
python main.py search-dictionaries <query>
Replace <query> with your search term.
To start a typing test:
python main.py run <test_duration> <dictionary>
<test_duration>: The duration of the test in seconds<dictionary>: The name of the dictionary to use (e.g., "english", "spanish")
Example:
python main.py run 60 english
This will start a 60-second typing test using the English dictionary.
- Type the words shown on the screen.
- Green text indicates correct typing, red indicates mistakes.
- The cursor position is highlighted.
- Current WPM and time remaining are displayed at the top.
- Press Backspace to correct mistakes.
- The test ends automatically when the time is up.
- Your final WPM and accuracy will be displayed.
- Press 'r' to restart with the same settings or 'q' to quit.
You can add new dictionaries by creating JSON files in the ./languages directory. Each file should contain a "words" array with the words for that language.
