LEARNTYPE
=========
Small CLI children's typing game (4/5 years old). The program shows a
word and the child has to type it letter by letter.
Currently supported languages are:
- en: English
- es: Spanish
- eu: Basque
- id: Indonesian
If you install the "espeak-ng" package, the program will read the
word and the result aloud.

## Usage
You can launch the program in your terminal with `learntype` command or
launch a custom `xterm` setup with good fonts and size with `learntype-xterm`.
Both take two arguments, `-l LANG` for the language and `-n NAME` for
the child's name. When the child achieves a good score, the program
greets the child with a personalized message.
## Installation
You require a working tcl/tk installation. Install as any other make
project.
$ make install
