Just install WP locally on your LAMP setup, pick a theme that you like,
and start fiddling. If you create pages in WP, they are
As I said, none if this us anywhere near as hard as you're making it. Go
into the theme's directory and open up the files. Change just a couple of
small things and see how it changes things. You'll quickly see that this

I'm just saying that for decades, heavy data entry programs have used
enter to move between fields, and yes, shift-enter to move back.
