| > Carpel tunnel syndrom (cts) is a real thing, but, IMO, poor posture is more likely to give you health problems than cts Also, use sticky keys (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sticky_keys) I use all software with sticky keys enabled and I can't go back to a state without sticky keys. I wonder why others also don't use it. Stick with it for two or three full days and I am certain that you will love not having to press shift to capitalise text or how easy it is to press the Ctrl keyboard shortcuts in general. Not to talk about how easy it makes Emacs usage. For exampe, to paste the URLs above, I pressed Shift with my left pinky and pressed Insert with right pinky one after the other, easier than contorting (it feels so now, after using sticky keys for some time, earlier it was okay) hand to press Ctrl-V. Also, to open and close brackets is real easy, tap Shift then press 9. >I recommend trying out sticky keys if your OS supports it, because your hands really feels better. It takes a while to switch mindset e.g. from M-x to M x (pressing one after the other), but it’s worth it. No less effective and less stress in the hands. - https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/StickyModifiers In Windows I place the sticky key icon in taskbar where I can see it instead of placing it inside the tray so that I can see the state of keys so as to avoid any confusion. |
