    (description "Tipp10 is a touch typing tutor.  The ingenious thing about
the software is its intelligence feature: characters that are mistyped are
repeated more frequently.  Beginners will find their way around right away so
they can start practicing without a hitch.

Useful support functions and an extensive progress tracker, topical lessons
and the ability to create your own practice lessons make learning to type
easy.")
