I did that for a few weeks sortof like a game at the end of the day. After that I would try typing a few notes dvorak style till I felt ready to switch. The only problem with the gentle approach is that at some point it gets kind of confusing and then you have to go one way or the other. -- --------------------------------------------------- Alex Blakemore alex@cs.umd.edu NeXT mail accepted
