I always see people refer to their typing speed as, for example 60 WPM. I was wondering if there was a counter available on OS X to see what my words per minute score is :-).

I couldn't find anything on VT.

Any ideas?

Why not just use Word? Try typing the first few pages of a book, and after a set amount of time get your word count. Divide that by how many minutes you typed.

I'm pretty sure that would work.
