Chording Hints

For anyone trying to learn how to use a chording-enabled keyboard but has trouble remembering, not only how to chord a certain word, but what words you even have chords FOR.

When using typing training sites like Entertrained while using CCOS-powered devices like the CharaChorder 2.1, words that are in your chord library will have a box floating above them that shows your shortest chord input for that word. For example, if you have the word "helpful" in your chord library as "hpf", then any time you run into the word "helpful" on supported typing sites, you'll see "hpf" hovering above the word.

You just need to import your chord library either using the "Sync Chords" button or by importing a JSON file with your chords in it.

When using the Sync Chords button from the options menu, you'll be told that this extension wants to connect to a serial port. Just select your chording device, and the extension will do the rest. Once your library has finished syncing, go to any supported typing training site to experience what it's like to be able to SEE what chords you have available to you.

Let's accelerate your journey to typing at the speed of thought.

If you experience any bugs or have any suggestions on how to make this better, the best way to find me is either by contacting me via the support URL or finding me in the CharaChorder Discord channel.
