Smassh is a TUI based typing test application inspired by MonkeyType
-- A very popular online web-based typing application
Smassh tries to be a full fledged typing test experience but not missing out on looks and feel!
[!CAUTION] Smassh, by default, uses nerd fonts for the icons If not installed, you'll see random gibberish icons
You can install the stable version of smassh by using pip or pipx
pip install smassh
yay -S smassh-bin
You should be able to see binaries for Linux, mac and windows in the releases section
[!NOTE] This should automatically create an executable
smasshthat can be directly run from command line
If not, check if the local path is added to$PATH
Some features that smassh comes with:
| Tweak | Description |
|---|---|
| Blind mode | You wouldn't be able to see your mistakes |
| Capital Letters | Some letters in your tasks will be capitalized! |
| Caret Style | Caret style matters! |
| Confidence mode | Are you sure you don't need backspace? Try this :) |
| Cursor Buddy | Setup your cursor buddy to run along with you! |
| Difficulty | Choose how strict smassh should be with your wrong keypresses |
| Force Correct | You wouldn't be able to able to go on without cleaning your pool of mistakes |
| Min Accuracy | Fall below this average accuracy and you fail! |
| Min Burst | Fall below this average accuracy for even a word and you fail! |
