Back with Visual Studio (pre-.NET), I could do everything with the keyboard. Now that VS.NET has changed them all, the only one I've learned is Ctrl+Shift+B. Course, I'm not coding as much now as I used to then. Now that I think about it, I do know some crazy keystrokes for Word formatting. Ugh. Shame on me...

It makes me wonder how much time is lost learning how to save those two weeks of time a year. ;) Good point at the end.

I stick with one side until my forearm is burnt out. I tend to alternate between my left and right side a few times a year. You would think this would be enough to get me using the keyboard more often, eh? And, yes, I knew you would reply. I just didn't think it would be so early...

I use Total Commander for my filesystem (copying, viewing of files, deleting, etc.). Tt replaces the Explorer perfectly, old Norton Commander Style and ultra fast as soon as you are experienced with it. Keyboard browsing (opera implents that very nice), and in VS2005 I also know every shortcut. I think you can save like 2 weeks of time in a year by using your keyboard only (After you learned how to use it perfectly) ;) I almost do everything with my keyboard, only.

We're all like that. We're all recovering mousers. Two tricks that have helped me me: 1) Put the mouse out of reach while you're working. Using keyboard shortcuts isn't hard, it's just inconvenient. Make using the mouse just a little more inconvenient and you'll find that you're making subconscious choices for keyboard shortcuts pretty soon. 2) Put the mouse on the other side of your keyboard. This is really a variation on (1); it's just making the mouse a little less convenient so you'll use the keyboard shortcuts more often. If that fails, you'll at least be ambimoustrous.
