Currently reading speed is constant regardless of word size. I find this works OK; however, I miss some larger words when I'm reading at 600+/wpm.<br /> </p> <p>I would like to see some smarts built into the timer, so that the selected reading speed is based on an average word size of 6 characters. Whenever the word is less than 6 characters, the display time would be shorter; likewise, whenever the word size is greater than 6 characters, the display time would be longer.<br /> </p> <p>I think this enhancement would improve overall comprehension and could still track accurately on the wpm settings.</p> <p>What do you think?</p></div>Nate HopkinsFri, 07 Dec 2007 04:01:25 -0000https://sourceforge.net29d16821098781a6c451556087040ab030c77f9f
