We are happy to announce a minor release of GNU Typist, gtypist-2.10.1.

GNU Typist (also called gtypist) is a universal typing tutor. You
can learn correct typing and improve your skills by practicing its
exercises on a regular basis.

Here is the GNU gtypist home page: https://gnu.org/s/gtypist/

See the NEWS below for a brief summary.

Thanks to all the contributors!


==== Updates in 2.10.1 ====


   - update the Spanish translation
   - fix in gtypits.typ, to jump from the global menu to the menus of the
     individual lessons
   - small fix to u.typ lesson
   - remove cmdline.c and cmdline.h files from the git repo; this will
     only affect those who build from git sources; dependency to gengetopt
     added to README.git
   - include the version.sh file, so autoconf can always update project
     version

     Addendum: since v2.10, gtypist is saving configuration setting in the
     file .gtypistrc

Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact.  First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

     gpg --verify gtypist-2.10.1.tar.gz.sig


The signature should match the fingerprint
of the following key:

     pub   rsa4096 2024-10-21 [SC]
           02AE C665 0073 01C2 80C5 C43A 0FB8 07D2 E7C7 C96C
     uid   Mihai Gătejescu <[email protected]>
     uid   Mihai Gătejescu <[email protected]>


If that command fails because you don't have the required
public key, or that public key has expired, try the following
commands to retrieve or refresh it, and then rerun
the 'gpg --verify' command.

     gpg --recv-keys 02AEC665007301C280C5C43A0FB807D2E7C7C96C


As a last resort to find the key, you can try the official GNU keyring:

     wget -q https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-keyring.gpg
     gpg --keyring gnu-keyring.gpg --verify gtypist-2.10.1.tar.gz.sig


This release is based on the gtypist git repository, available as:

     git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/gtypist.git

with commit tagged as release-2.10.1.


For a summary of changes and contributors, see:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gtypist.git;a=shortlog;h=release-2.10.1
or run this command from a git-cloned gtypist directory:

     git shortlog release-2-10..release-2-10-1
