>The key to learning how to touch type is just typing _a lot_.

Absolutely. I don't think that typing-tutor software really does very much teaching at all, it's just a good tool for drilling yourself. But why not have fun in the process, rather than boring and mindless drills? I learned by playing the early Sierra adventure games, before they switched to the all-point and click interface.

Now I'm feeling all nostalgic...time to go download ScummVM.
