One Key Piano.

Learn to play a morse code straight key like a piano.

Intro

This version is being done with these tools which I really like.

• zig.
• dvui. Dave Vanderson's graphics framework for zig.
• sqlite-zig. LeRoyce Pearson's sqlite package for zig.
• kickzig.

But before I can do that I need an audio package for the metronome clicks and for the key tone. So I'm looking into that right now.

The Plan

1. Courses

In Courses one can

• View a description of the current course and select a different current course.
• Create a new course.
• Edit an existing course.
• Remove an existing course.

A course has

• A name.
• A description.
• One of the various lesson plans. A lesson plan is series of lessons. A lesson presents the character, word or sentence that one must learn to copy and key.
• One of the various speeds for keying and copying.

2. Training

In Training one learns the current course one lesson at a time. In a lesson one pratices as long as desired and then tests.

Copying

Copy Practice

• The morse code is keyed by the app.
• Correct copies don't count toward anything. Incorrect copies don't count against anything.

Copy Test

• The morse code is keyed by the app.
• Correct copy attempts accumulate until the required amount of correct copy attempts is reached.
• Incorrect copy attempts have no effect on the accumulated correct copy attempts.

Keying

Key Practice

• The text to be keyed is displayed.
• The keying instructions are displayed.
• The app's metronome can be turned on to keep time.
• When the metronome is turned off the key sounds in the app. The key has a subtle beat to help keep time. Hold the key down for 1 beat for a dit. Hold the key down for 3 beats for a dah.
• Correct key attempts don't count toward anything.
• Incorrect key attempts don't count against anything.

Key Test

• The text to be keyed is displayed.
• The keying instructions are not displayed.
• The app's metronome can not be turned on to keep time.
• The key sounds in the app. The key has a subtle beat to help keep time. Hold the key down for 1 beat for a dit. Hold the key down for 3 beats for a dah.
• Correct key attempts accumulate until the required amount of correct key attempts is reached.
• Incorrect key attempts have no effect on the accumulated correct key attempts.
