I asked a similar question a week or so ago and Jay Leventhal was the
only answer saying that the only 'typing tutor' he knew of was from the
American Printing House for the Blind and it ran only in DOS. I think
the web site would be www.aph.org. Please forward info if you gather
more
Good luck,
Monte
