If you spend most of your time typing on your keyboard getting up to speed and practicing to become a better and faster typist is well worth the time and effort. And measuring something is the first step to improve it.
There are tons of applications which test your typing abilities and help you improve it, but wouldn’t it be nice to have a basic idea about your typing performance using nothing but good old Bash? After all, this is about DIY (Do It Yourself) approach and having fun!!!!
Measuring the typing speed means basically measuring how many words you typed in a given amount of time. One of the most popular units used is wpm (words per minute). Maybe not very accurate and scientific, but we’re aiming for a ballpark figure here so some approximate measure will be fine for our purpose. Based on this information we can write the formula as:

typing_speed_in_wpm = num_words / ( (end_time - start_time) / 60 )

SFD2010

“InskCape”,”Compiz”,”OpenFoam”,”Empathy”,”Gimp”,”Gnome” were the hearsay that echoed in all quarters of Birla  Planetorium where the Software Freedom Day(18th September) have been celebrated in an awe-inspiring way. The venue was flooded with stalls of Linux users group from various parts of the city with the sole aim of promoting open source software. With no doubt, CEGLUG(CEG’s Linux User Group) were there with bells on to show the demonstration of various projects ,elucidating various open software and their benefits in various fields. One of our projects, “PAINT YOUR MIND” which has been developed for spastic society ( Vidhyasagar School ,Adayar) hit everyone’s mind and made them sit back in awe. Our project, that grabbed the attention of the swarm , was awarded the first place and we were bestowed with the cash prize of Rs.1500/- Being honoured in this Feast Day will always remain as an exemplar in CEGLUG’s sojourn towards making a cat’s paw of open source. :)
