Describe the bug 🐛 I've installed termtpye via the AUR. I had to choose between the repository or the AUR package for python-playsound and chose the repository version. When starting termtype I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

To Reproduce 🐣 See bug description.

Expected behavior 🤔 It should work after installing the package.

Live typing stats 💡

I think it would be beneficial if the user can get an idea of their current performance while typing. This can be done by implementing a small dashboard below the typing section of the GUI. (See mockup diagram)

This dashboard could illustrate some typing statistics such as:

• The number of words that have been typed (e.g. "Words typed: 34")
• The number of words left in the paragraph (e.g. "Words left: 43")
• Elapsed time (e.g. "Time: 45s")

Mockup diagram 🧐 This mockup is what the first design iteration of the dashboard may look like.

When punctuation is enabled and currently being asked for typing a space instead jumps to the start of the next word inserting 2 spaces with a single press and trains bad backspace muscle memory.

Describe the bug 🐛 The AUR package (termtyper-git) that you maintain for this project is seriously broken. It does the a pip install into the user's home (a serious problem, as it leaves left over files when uninstalled, and also means it will have to be installed via pip for other users anyway) and fails to list all the needed dependencies (pip).

To Reproduce 🐣 Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Try and install the package from the AUR
2. WTF
3. Audit the PKGBUILD
4. Die

Expected behavior 🤔

1. Try and install the package from the AUR
2. :)

• OS: Arch Linux

Additional context 📝 If you need any help fixing the PKGBUILD, feel free to ask as I maintain a few AUR packages myself.

Describe the bug 🐛 When pressing a key, instead of a sound coming, it shows an error at the bottom of the screen

To Reproduce 🐣 Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Enable the sound option
2. Type some text
3. See error

Expected behavior 🤔 It should play the keypress sound

Screenshots 🧐 A still image of the error (from the gif)

Desktop (please complete the following information): 🤖

• OS: Windows 11
• Version 22H2 (22581.200)

Additional context 📝 It seems like the file path being passed to playsound is from the python 3.9 directory instead of being in the python 3.10 one where I installed termtyper. I've uninstalled playsound and termtyper from python 3.9, I only have them in python 3.10 but this still occurs.

This line seems to be the problem

https://github.com/kraanzu/termtyper/blob/9da5010f8349bd8bf487b5b48042d769c8e79c17/src/termtyper/utils/parser.py#L26-L35

This assumes the pip command is always going to be from the python interpreter termtyper is installed in. In my case, I have the pip command set to python 3.9, so the rich location shown by pip show rich is the one from that, for python 3.9 it would need to run py -3.10 -m pip show rich, but why does it even need to run these commands? just to get the path where termtyper is installed? for that you can just use the following snippet:

import os.path

sounds = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), "sounds", "mech.wav")

This is what I use in my pypi-command-line package and it works great.

I just realized that I can set sounds_loc in my config but it should set the location automatically though

Initialize Parser class only once to prevent other files from not being synchronized after a particular change to the config file. The config of all files will refer to MAIN_PARSER from Parser.py.

Fix Issue #41.

It seems a stupid way to go... I found it difficult to dynamically read words.txt after packaging, so I replaced it with words.py.

But it works! Now we can find executable files that doesn't require Python to run in Actions, on push or pull request according to .github/workflows/app.yml. Here is an example in my repo.

I have successfully run it on Windows and Ubuntu, but macOS has not been verified yet (hope no problems). Can someone test it?

If there are no bugs, I'll add introductions into README.md.

Describe the bug 🐛 I don't know Python so I need some help I use git clone newest code and install python3.8.8. There are some problems to pip3 install .

Is your feature request related to a problem? 😢 Please describe. Add unit testing/automated testing

Describe the solution you'd like 🤔 Add unit testing/automated testing via PyTest/PyUnit/similar dependency to allow open source devs to work remotely and asynchronously while maintaining the quality of code and ability to build this project without bugs. This can be automated easily with GitHub Actions and a build workflow that is required to pass before a PR will be merged.

Describe alternatives you've considered 🧐 Every dev could have their own independent testing procedures in their local environment but this would lead to great repetition of work, opportunities for new bugs to be added to different dev's builds and/or test code, and general lack of cohesion in the project.

Additional context 📝 I want to be able to test things without breaking what is already there. I saw in the .gitignore file to ignor a /test folder but if anyone does have any test code available I would really appreciate and think it is a good idea to merge that in.

I just installed it from AUR.

Under Settings > Capitalization Mode, I tried both "on" and "max" settings. But I didn't see any capitalized letters when I entered "Start Typing!".

Perhaps I should activate it somehow?

Note: I don't know why this post doesn't have the "bug" label. And I don't know how to edit it in.

Describe the bug 🐛 I am not able to change the values of a NumberScroll in settings. I have tried scrolling with my MacBook Air trackpad and my Logitech bluetooth mouse which did nothing. When I pressed 'J' or 'K' or Up or Down it or Shift+Up or Shift+Down it would change the highlighted setting to the next setting but would not actually toggle/alter the values of any of the settings themself.

To Reproduce 🐣 Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. On Python 3.10, Mac OS 10.15.3
2. Go to settings page
3. Try to change value in number scroll with scrollwheel, 'J' and 'K' keys

Expected behavior 🤔 The value in the NumberScroll for the setting should change up or down.

Screenshots 🧐 If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Desktop (please complete the following information): 🤖

• OS: Mac OSx 10.15.3
• Python 10.3

Additional context 📝 Need the NumberScrolls to be working so I can test adding a new NumberScroll for a different feature :)

There is no need to highlight current typing letter , it may cause distraction or just add this option and please add " | " cursor style as monkeytype shown below :

OS: Windows 11 Terminal: Windows Terminal Shell: Power shell Python Version: 3.10 Issue: No sound when typing, I have set keypress sound on, and no underline caret sytle. I tested in cmd ,still no sound but underline caret display normally. Feature request: Normal vertical line caret style and it is better for typing.

Is your feature request related to a problem? 😢 Please describe. As far as I'm aware, there is currently no easy way to reset the settings back to their default values without doing so manually. This can make it quite tedious to mess with and keep track off many modified settings.

Describe the solution you'd like 🤔 I propose to either add a shortcut (such as ctrl+r) stated in the help menu, or a button to each menu within settings to reset all the settings back to their default values. If there are better ways of doing this, then I would love to hear alternative suggestions.

Describe the bug 🐛 The 'Min Burst:' setting within the 'Push Your Limits' menu disappears when toggling the help menu from a different settings menu. The missing setting can be made to reappear by toggling the help menu once again but from the 'Push Your Limits' menu itself.

To Reproduce 🐣 Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

1. Within 'Settings', go to any menu other than the 'Push your Limits' menu.
2. Press 'ctrl+h' twice to open and close the help menu.
3. Go to the 'Push your Limits' menu. By this point, the setting 'Min Burst:' should be gone.
4. Repeat step (2.). The setting should reappear.

Expected behaviour 🤔 The settings should not disappear and reappear when opening and closing the help menu.
