0.3.1.1 - Fixed bug with possible overfilling some exercise row (in exercise widget).
hi,
in kubuntu 8.10, i installed nlkt. i choose "en" and start the training. but there are 2 problems:
1. weird text like "pro pro pro pro pro~pro pro pro pro pro" or "ere\ere ere ere ere ere ere7ere ere" is coming before any "fortune" text. in other words, the first paragraph is not the fortune text but weird text.
2. Wordwrap missing, the text is invisible on the right hand side. invisible as in un-word-wrapped. the keys are highlighted but text is beyong the right margin. perhaps, it's due to my using 120dpi instead of 96dpi in display settings.
thanks.
Hi,
I have compiled and install nlkt 0.3.1.2 in slackware 12.1.
I have fortune installed, but nlkt is not taking English fortune for testing.
Please also add an option to open "Text" files for practicing.
thank you nlkt is very nice. but only problem is that mistakes should be ignored not forced to stop the training.
Thanks for look. I will think about external texts for practice...

THIS IS PLEDGE WEEK FOR THE FORTUNE PROGRAM
If you like the fortune program, why not support it now with your
contribution of a pithy fortune, clean or obscene? We cannot continue
without your support. Less than 14% of all fortune users are
contributors. That means that 86% of you are getting a free ride. We
can't go on like this much longer. Federal cutbacks mean less money
for fortunes, and unless user contributions increase to make up the
difference, the fortune program will have to shut down between midnight
and 8 a.m. Don't let this happen. Mail your fortunes right now to
"fortune". Just type in your favorite pithy saying. Do it now before
you forget. Our target is 300 new fortunes by the end of the week.
Don't miss out. All fortunes will be acknowledged. If you contribute
30 fortunes or more, you will receive a free subscription to "The
Fortune Hunter", our monthly program guide. If you contribute 50 or
more, you will receive a free "Fortune Hunter" coffee mug ....

Well, I would -- if they realized that we -- again if -- if we led them
back to that stalemate only because our retaliatory power, our seconds,
or strike at them after our first strike, would be so destructive they
they couldn't afford it, that would hold them off.

Hm... Do you have English fortunes installed at all? what outputs if you calls 'fortune' several times? Does it output the different English texts?
