Well, I can’t. That’s why it struck a chord with me when I read Steve Yegge’s rant about those developers who claim that typing is not really important for fluent programming. The article is a very funny read and it left me determined to learn touch typing now - not today, but tomorrow - or maybe the year after tomorrow.
Can anyone recommend a good touch typing teaching software in German?

I use http://www.keybr.com/ , however it has no German language Dvorak. And if you’re going to learn to touch type, you might as well do so on a layout that isn’t going to cripple your hands a few years down the line…

Hi Johannes,
ich hab’s mit AlphaTast so lange geübt, bis ich’s so halb konnte. Dann hat mich die Lust verlassen…

I prefer Tipp10, too. It has a nice user interface und is easy to use. Characters offen misspelled will be dictated more often immediately! It’s great, every lesson will be created different. It really makes fun.
The german touch typing software version is available here: http://www.tipp10.de
