Re: [bug-gtypist] Multicolored GTypist (was: Re: GNU Typist vim question)

Felix,

 I feel like I am in no position to make requests for this already great 
program (I’m really enjoying it!) but really appreciate you even humoring the 
idea even though it was a simple misunderstanding so I will just share my 
thoughts, (:

I agree red would be great for errors and each lesson would be very interesting 
in a single random color. For example In a single unique gtypist session, 
lesson 4 could be green and lesson 5 could be yellow, and the next gtypist 
session lesson  4 is blue and 5 is pink etc etc (with same black backdrop to 
retain easy focus) (everything but red which could be reserved for errors :) 
and maybe the session after that they are both green because hey, its random!. 
:) I think this would be pretty nice option and help retain focus if using for 
hours on end and perhaps could all be set/pre-determined at launch so as not to 
increase load :)

Thanks for doing what you do!

Mahalo,

Caleb Shepard

P.S. perhaps red could also be used as a lesson color with errors a static 
color, like mustard yellow?…  :)
