v1.5

What's new:

Improved handling of keys and changed some shortcuts:

• Welcome Screen:

  • Ctrl+C, Ctrl+D, and Esc: Now closing the typos.
  • Any other key will start the typos. _{No changes.}

• While typing:

  • Tab: Fully resetting current typing test(Already typed stats, words, and even timer will be reset). And you will start the test from the beginning.
  • Ctrl+C, Ctrl+D, and Esc: Now closing the typos.
  • Ctrl+Backspace: Removing current word, or goes to start of the previous. _{No changes.}
  • Backspace: Removing current character. _{No changes.}
  • ←: Moves to the previously typed character. _{No changes.}
  • →: Moves to the next character. Works only for already typed characters. _{No changes.}
  • Only printable characters will be prompt to the test (see man 3 isprint).
  • Any other input will be ignored.

• Stats Screen:

  • Ctrl+C, Ctrl+D, and Esc: Now closing the typos.
  • Ctrl+S: Saves your typing test result to ./typos.log file. By appending new test data to the end of the file and with the current local date at the top of each result.
  • Enter: Restart the test. _{No changes.}

!! IMPORTANT !!; Because of reasons of handling the "Escape Sequences" the Esc-key by itself has a delay in 1 sec. My advice is to use Ctrl+C, and Ctrl+D keybindgds instead of Esc whatever it's possible. The Esc is not removed because for some peoples the Esc-key may be a more comfortable way to close the program.

Other:

• Better allocation error handles with try-catch instead of C-type assert macro.
• Each stat at the Stats Screen now has individual colors.
• Other minor fixes\improvements.

v1.0

REWRITTEN EVERYTHING IN C++

okay, cool, but what's new:

• Changed the methods of typing stats data collecting and the actual logic of it

• Correct calculation of WPM (Net WPM, including your typos)

• Calculating RAW WPM (Gross WPM, doesn't include your typos)

• Calculating Accuracy

• Even more info in Debug mode (make debug_all)

• Now you can restart typing test

• Rendering optimizations (kinda of)

• Typos now has a black foreground and yellow background

• Each typo that you will be made instead of pressing the spacebar can't be fixed, be aware of that.

Everything else works the same, at least I hope so.

Have fun!
