Serious typing tutor?


I am wondering if anyone knows of a good typing tutor for Linux. The ones I have found are made for kids, so I do not know if they can teach more advanced typing. I especially want to learn to type 10-keys. If you know of a good free Windows application that might run in WINE that is fine too.

The above link takes you to

Some more->
Take a look at KTouch which is designed for Linux, maybe the Windows 1s are better, but you'll need to emulate.

Hope it was useful.
