- Typometer is a tool to measure and analyze visual latency of text/code
- editors. Its features:
- - Cross-platform (Windows, Mac, Unix)
- - Native API calls for faster screen access
- - Synchronous and asynchronous modes
- - Import and export of CSV data
- - Summary statistics, frequency distribution
- - Line/bar charts (including comparative ones)
- - Chart image export (with legend)
- Editor latency is delay between an input event and a corresponding screen
- update, in particular -- delay between keystroke and character appearance.
- While there are many kinds of delays (caret movement, line editing, etc.),
- typing latency is a major predictor of editor usability.
- Java 8 or later is required to run the program.
