Hi everybody,<p>For the last week, I tried an experiment. I wanted to do everything on my computer without using any pointing device at all.
I used mainly terminal programs to do my work (mutt, vim and w3m to name a few), and it worked out better than expected.
I really feel that I'm way faster when I only use shortcuts and not touching my mouse once.
In the beginning, it was a little bit confusing, but I really enjoy it now. Even when I do have to step outside the terminal, browsers like `quteborwser` make it so easy to surf the web without a mouse.<p>Has anyone tried this out before too? I know that everyone who worked on a PC in the 60s/70s has, but that's not the point. I really want to know if someone tried it in the 5-10 years. If so, did you stick to it? And if not, why have you disliked it?
I do enjoy it but I always seem to gravitate back to using a mouse.<p>Some sites work very well with just a keyboard for example, using shortcuts on facebook to navigate and interact with posts.<p>As soon as I interact with other sites and programs that need a mouse I just stick with it from there.
