I was just reading this thread… https://sh.itjust.works/post/23476261
…and it got me thinking about something that I’ve wanted for a long time. Why is it that keyboards have not evolved to have dedicated copy/paste keys left of the main board? I’d love to see an additional column of keys left of Esc->Ctrl configurable as macros at least. I do a lot of copy/paste for work. The current shortcuts arent terrible or anything but they’re not exactly comfortable. I’d rather move my whole hand to the left for a macro key than contort to hit the current shortcut.
What do you think?
is Ctrl c and Ctrl v too hard for OP? it’s damn near universal with no extra effort to setup…
Doesn’t work in Linux consoles.
There are some work that requires me to copy and paste a lot of times, after a while, it kind of strains the fingers a bit.
autohotkey
point is, this already exists, no reason to add special keys when there are already work arounds for people that want it different.
Yes, it’s weird, but maybe he does a lot. For example, I use the superkey+space to change the keyboard layout about five times per minute, but I changed it to use the Caps Lock key to change the keyboard layout instead.
