Factors I'm typically trying to minimise when working include time spent - and muscular effort. The latter gets priority over other types of effort because I don't see fatigue as much of a hazzard - but I do see cumulative trauma disorders as something to be avoided. :> : Yeah, but then you've got to get *back* to where you want. :> :> You know where I want the cursor to be? : A reasonable guess would be "where you were before" (in terms of the : text - obviously it'd be further to the left after the outdent) - I'd : certainly say that's a more reasonable guess than "at the start of the : line". It sounds as though you agree that in some particular cases you have no idea where I want the cursor to be, or whether I care. -- __________ |im |yler http://timtyler.org/ tim@tt1.org
