IMPORTANT HINTS:
----------------

Default language
----------------
The default language is German when you use a german locale,
else English.
This behaviour can be overridden in the settings. If you change that
and get an locale error message, please fix it in your system although
it will not influence the translation of dialogs.

Wrong stroke counting
---------------------
Some people asked because they find that the stroke counting of
Tipptrainer is wrong. Tipptrainer doesn't count the <Shift> key as
separate key. We don't consider this as a bug. We think that the
<Shift> key is needed (in conjunction with another key, though) 
exactly to write _one_ char (for instance a capital letter). So we
count both keys as one keystroke.
