Hallo,

ich nutze das Zehnfingersystem seit langem, und bin aber mit einigen Dingen
noch nicht ganz zufrieden.

Ich habe meine Verbesserungsvorschläge mal notiert:

Feedback willkommen!

# ten-flying-fingers
My goal is to keep the pointing fingers on "F" and "J" as much as possible

# Keys which are hard to access

These keys are hard to access if you want to keep the pointing fingers on "F" 
and "J"

- Pos1, End
- CursorUp, CursorDown, CursorLeft, CursorRight
- PageUp, PageDown
- Backspace
- Del
- ...

# History
I used Emacs for more than 15 years. Mostly for programming Python. In 2015 I 
switched from Emacs to PyCharm. In Emacs it is easy to go to the beginning/end 
of a line. During configuring PyCharm I asked myself: Why not configure this 
once for all applications? Why configure keyboard short cuts for every single 
application?

Other example: In thunderbird many users configure a shortcut to delete mails. 
The del-key works, but users configure a short cut. Why? Because "del" is too 
hard to access....

# I am happy with most other keys on the keyboard

I know that there are alternative keyboard layouts like neo2 or colemark. I am 
happy with the default QWERTY or QWERTZ layout. I want to improve the default 
layout, I don't want to replace it. I want to be able to use the keyboard of my 
team mates and family members like I am used to.

# Why not xmodmap ...

The basics could be solved by using xmodmap. But later I would love to have a 
command line interface which does much more then just mapping one keyboard key 
to an other key.

# Command line

Pressing CapsLock twice should open a command line like tool. With this I want 
to:

  - move windows: for example put all terminals on the current screen beneath 
each other (no overlapping)
  - change window focus: For example bring webbroser, mail client or editor on 
the top of the screen.
  - insert fixed text: like "Regards, Firstname Lastname" or my ssh public key.
  - autocomplete search in the history of the copy and paste texts.

# Copy+Paste with same shortcuts everywhere
I want the same shortcut for copy+paste in all applications. I choose to take 
the common ctrl-c ctrl-v for this. Works every where except the x/gnome 
terminal.

This is easy to solve. Just use Edit -> Keyboard of the gnome terminal:
