For years I was a big believer in doing everything from the keyboard.
However things have bcome so graphical today that this is impossible. So, I
have now arived at the comprimise of doing most everything from the
keyboard, but reaching for the ouse to do things like cut and paste. For
isntance if I get an interesting URL in an email (I use mutt for email
BTW), then I just highlight it with the mouse, move the mouse to the
browser, and paste it with the middle mouse button, after typing ^O of
course. BTW ^O (which stands for open) makes more sense than ^L. What the
heck is that memonic for?
