Well, not to start a flame war, but that is all subjective. I find NOT using a mouse to be much faster, and screen can be set up pretty much the same way you describe (specific screens for a task, labels, etc). So it's really more about personal taste than anything. If you _like_ what you are using, that's fine. I wouldn't like that setup. All options are valid options. Try them all and find what you like. -- David Rock da...@graniteweb.com _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
