[9fans] The Joy of Secstore
Hi, when I've got secstored running on the cpu/auth, drawterm asks me for my secstore password and then factotum does as well. Am I missing something that reduces it to once ? M
Re: [9fans] Why does Acme only show text?

I don't know whether it is even possible in current design, nor, if it is, how complicated the coding of these features would be. Just an idea. I suspect also that it was already mentioned on 9fans. I would like that too, it always disappoints me when I right click the column box expecting it to expand :)

Re: [9fans] Guide to using Acme effectively?
if the amount of text in the window is relatively small, then just selecting all the text by dragging from start to end and chord cut/paste is usually fastest. when there's lots of text, it can be better to select all the text by typing ":," in the tag and right-clicking it; then middle click "Snarf" to copy it to the snarf buffer. I select it (by drag or :,) and press escape for cut (and then paste it back in again if it's to copy) Though in doing this I often find myself pressing Esc in shell windows and not getting what I wanted. Also often you'll see my hand move towards the mouse and return to the kb because I changed my mind or be hovering somewhere over the numeric keypad waiting for my brain to decide what to do with it. Also I have two mice connected to my computer, one with a scrollwheel and one without. I've also got a perfit mouse which has no scroll wheel on the middle button but two for use with the thumb, sadly the one I picked up cheap (i.e. $30 !) is a little too large for my girly hands. And one of these one handed keyboards : http://www.proweb.co.uk/~matt/maltron.jpg Though I'm not up to any kind of speed with it, and I want to keep my eyes open for a left handed one instead (or get better with a left handed mouse).
