I see. This is the feature I use 100% for note/rest input, and once the
speedy frame is chosen, I never touch the mouse except when the bass-clef
bug bites.

In Finale, it's time lost every time I have to use a mouselike tool (and I
have a left-hand trackball and right-hand mouse and pen tablet for
different purposes). I used to have a voice command interface (back in
Windows 3.1), but didn't get one after moving away from the old OS. I only
used the interface for Finale, actually, because I could automate most of
the repetitive commands.

So put a couple of strokes back in the Finale column for its computer
keyboard interface.

(Anybody use a voice interface under Windows? Any good?)
