What seems like a hundred years ago I used to use the original lotus
123 all the time. I really liked their menu system which consisted of
two lines at the top of the screen. You enabled the menu with the /
key and then triggered the items using single letters for example to
copy something the command could have been /ec(motion keys or hand
entered range)(enter).

I think emacs could be made much friendlier to the hand if instead of
C-c, C-x you could make the control key "sticky" so you did Ccx. Of
course if you were going to go through all that trouble you'd use
CAPSLOCKcx instead.

Anyway that's the main reason I don't use emacs despite giving it
numerous tries. Just too painful on the hand. Probably because I never
mastered the two handed chording.
