Plover
Open-source stenotype engine that turns a keyboard into a steno machine
Description
Envy court stenographers who type nearly in sync with speech? It's stenography. Plover lets you practice it on an ordinary keyboard—an open-source stenotype engine that turns a regular keyboard into a steno machine, pressing multiple keys together (chords) to output whole words or sentences at once. With practice you can exceed 200 words per minute, far beyond letter-by-letter typing. The steno dictionary is editable to fit your habits. From the Open Steno Project, cross-platform and free—worth learning to break your typing-speed ceiling.
