TypeFast For PM
By Turgut Kalfaoglu
-------------------
This semi-game (or educational game) attempts to increase your typing
abilities by displaying falling words which you must type before they
reach the bottom of the screen. Game ends when you miss 15 words.
When you start the program, it stays in the demo mode (no score or time
keeping) until you hit a key. From there on, it counts how many words
you typed, and in how many minutes. When the game is over, it will
display the result.
Difficulty Levels
It has a "dynamic difficulty" level, which keeps getting more difficult,
if you leave few words on the screen. Basicaly, it becomes faster and
drops more words, if you have less than 4-5 words left on the screen. So,
in any level, it will start slow, and get more difficult as you do better.
You can call it a game that you can't outgrow :)

Source Code:
It virtually has no comments, except for things that are commented out,
so I'd like to clean it before posting. Please wait for the next release
for the source code.
Enjoy!
