> also kind of cool to re-type it all to get a feel for the language myself Don't. Or do, but in any event be really clear of your goals. Is your aim to get something done? Then do it the most efficient way (not by hand). Do you want to get a feel for the language? Then hand-type it all, but at the cost of slowing you down greatly. Decide up front what your goals are else you will mix your goals and try to ride two horses, as the saying goes, and make achieving either much, much harder. I've made this mistake many times, so take it as wisdom derived from really painful experience. Focus! (this may come across as lecturing and presumptuous but I've screwed so much up by lack of clear goals and focus).
