If no other input is provided, speedpad tries to loop on fortunes generated by
the famous fortune program. For the full out of the box
experience, you should install fortune, and packagers should make sure their
speedpad package recommends it.
If you want to visualize your typing statistics, consider installing
gnuplot or something similar. Packagers should suggest gnuplot in their
speedpad package.
