The Missing Link(s)

The Missing Link(s)



Is mouse dependency slowing you down? Over the years since
the advent of point and click, I've seen people reach for the mouse for
the most trivial of actions.



If you're attempting to do word processing, or writing your
productivity is being severely impaired. In many instances
the keyboard is not only more efficient, but faster.



Anything you can do with a mouse, I can do with a keyboard. Vision impaired users and users
using speech recognition routinely eschew the mouse for the keyboard.



Most of us have forgotten how to use keyboard shortcuts. Most
program menus show the option list but also show the keyboard strokes
you can use to directly access the command. Hopefully you're
using CTRL + C (copy) and CTRL + V (paste) on a regular basis along
with CTRL + S (save) to speed up your work. But there are
many more you can access.



For a start, press the F1 key on your keyboard and Whoa!
Where'd Help come from?



Your Help (whatever program) should have a Search Tab. Type
keyboard shortcuts and you should have a list of the keyboard shortcuts
available for your program.



That's how simple it is - now you make them part of your everyday
computer use by using them!
