NAME

       typefortune - generate a .typ file and call gtypist to run this file

SYNOPSIS

       typefortune [ Options... ]

DESCRIPTION

       typefortune creates a gtypist lesson-file from fortune and runs gtypist on it.

OPTIONS

       -d     use D: (drill) instead of S: (speed)

       -s     run fortune -s

       -l     run fortune -l

       -n <count>
	      practice <count> fortunes (default=1)

       -o <gtypist_options>
	      pass options to gtypist

EXAMPLE

       To practice 3 fortunes and run gtypist as --silent -e 5 --word-processor:

	      typefortune -n 3 -o 'silent e,5 word-processor'

DIAGNOSTICS

       If typefortune quits with the following message

	      No fortunes found

       then you are missing fortune cookies.

       The  full  documentation  for  gtypist  (and typefortune) is maintained as a Texinfo manual.  If the info and gtypist programs are properly
       installed at your site, the command

	      info gtypist

       (section "Using typefortune") should give you access to the complete manual.
