Description

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.
