Hi All,
       Please forgive this question, but I have seen no mention of one
of the most obvious programs needed for the project.

Is there a program to teach touch typing for the OLPC?

I'd like to learn myself :-)
My daughter has the use of a nice commercial program at her school (she
is 12 years old and now her skills are now better than mine) but I have
not found appropriate Open Source program for Linux.

Cheers

I havent heard of any plans to include such a program with OLPC by default but there are several such open source software that can be potentially used

Tuxtype

Ktouch, which is part of KDE Edu. gtypist and emacs-gypist are open source but doesnt fit the target audience.
