+
+## Usage
+
+Use one of the functions to enter `monkeytype` mode (`monkeytype-region`, `monkeytype-buffer`, etc... see [Commands](#commands--key-bindings) section below).
+
+(Note: You should bind these functions to anything you want in your `.emacs`.)
+
+The buffer should look as follows:
+
+![img](https://github.com/jpablobr/emacs-monkeytype/raw/main/img/monkeytype-paused.png)
+
+The section inside the red rectangle is Monkeytype's mode-line and the following is the fields breakdown:
+
+**MT[WPM/GWP Accuracy Elapsed-time (words/corrections/errors)]**
+
+Then you can either type all the way to the end or stop/finish (`C-c C-C s` / `monkeytype-stop`).
+
+The buffer should look as follows:
+
+![img](https://github.com/jpablobr/emacs-monkeytype/raw/main/img/monkeytype-results-without-log.png)
+
+This Results buffer re-renders the typed text highlighting errors and either correct or incorrect corrections
+(highlighted with a different background and slightly different colour).
+
+At this point you can either practice mistyped words with `monkeytype-mistyped-words`  or just troubling/hard transitions with `monkeytype--hard-transition` (`C-c C-c h`).
+
+## Features
+
+- Type any text you want.
+- Practice mistyped words.
+- UI customisation.
+- Mode-line live WPM (`monkeytype-mode-line-interval-update` adjust the update frequency).
+- Visual representation of typed text including errors and retries/corrections.
+- Auto stop after 5 seconds of no input (`C-c C-c r` [ `monkeytype-resume` ] resumes).
+- Optionally randomise practice words/transitions (see: `monkeytype-randomize`).
+- Optionally downcase practice words/transitions (see: `monkeytype-downcase`).
+- Optionally treat newlines as whitespace (see: `monkeytype-treat-newline-as-space`).
+- Optionally auto-fill text to the defaults `fill-column` value (see: `monkeytype-auto-fill`).
+- Select a region of text and treat it as words for practice (e.i., optionally downcased, randomised, etc... see: `monkeytype-region-as-words`).
+- After a test, practice troubling/hard key combinations/transitions (useful when practising with different keyboard layouts).
+- Mistyped words or hard transitions can be saved to `~/.monkeype/{words or transitions}` (see: `monkeytype-directory` `monkeytype-save-mistyped-words` `monkeytype-save-hard-transitions`).
+- Saved mistyped/transitions files (or any file but defaults to `~/.monkeytype/` dir) can be loaded with `monkeytyped-load-words-from-file`.
+- `monkeytype-word-regexp` customises the regexp used for removing characters from words (defaults to: ;:.\`",()-?!).

+
+- Save results / history
+
+### Tips
+
+- When using `evil-mode` it's useful to automatically enable `evil-insert` (to start typing right away).
+- When using `evil-escape`, `evil-escape-mode` has to be disabled in order to prevent double keystrokes getting registered.
+- Installing [`centered-cursor-mode`](https://github.com/emacsmirror/centered-cursor-mode) is useful for auto scrolling/paging in multi-page / long texts.
+
+This can then be enabled in your `.emacs` with:
+
+``` emacs-lisp
+(add-hook 'monkeytype-mode-hook
+  (lambda ()
+    (centered-cursor-mode)
+    (evil-escape-mode -1)
+    (evil-insert -1)))
+```
+
+## Commands / Key bindings
+
+| Key binding | Function                         |

+| C-c C-c f   | monkeytype-fortune               |
+| C-c C-c p   | monkeytype-pause                 |
+| C-c C-c r   | monkeytype-resume                |
+| C-c C-c s   | monkeytype-stop                  |
+| C-c C-c t   | monkeytype-repeat                |
+| C-c C-c m   | monkeytype-mistyped-words        |
+| C-c C-c h   | monkeytype-hard-transitions      |
+| C-c C-c a   | monkeytype-save-mistyped-words   |
+| C-c C-c o   | monkeytype-save-hard-transitions |
+|             | monkeytype-region                |
+|             | monkeytype-buffer                |

+## Customisation
+
+Run `M-x customize-group RET` `monkeytype RET` or `monkeytype-faces RET`.
+
+Or set the variables in your `.emacs` file:
+
+``` emacs-lisp
+(setq monkeytype-face-default '(:family "Menlo" :height 1.6 :foreground "#969896"))
+(setq monkeytype-face-correct '(:foreground "#98be65"))

+(setq monkeytype-face-header-3 '(:foreground "#F1C40F"))
+(setq monkeytype-mode-line-interval-update 10)
+(setq monkeytype-treat-newline-as-space t)
+(setq monkeytype-minimum-transitions 50)
+(setq monkeytype-insert-log nil)
+(setq monkeytype-directory "~/.monkeytype")

+(setq monkeytype-dowcase t)
+(setq monkeytype-word-regexp (concat
+                              ":\\|"
+                              ";\\|"
+                              ",\\|"
+                              "(\\|"
+                              ")\\|"
+                              "?\\|"
+                              "!\\|"
+                              " \\|"
+                              "\"\\|"
+                              "\n\\|"
+                              "\`\\|"
+                              "\\."))
+```
+
+## Log
+
+Logging can be enabled for debugging purposes (see `monkeytype-insert-log` customisation).
+
+When enabled it should look as follows:

+
+## Install
+
+Just drop `monkeytype.el` somewhere in your `load-path` and add it to your `.emacs`:
+
+``` emacs-lisp
+(add-to-list 'load-path "~/emacs.d/vendor")
+(require 'monkeytype)
